the fact is, if she, as a one off, dashed to get necessary supplies, she should have at least secured the premises before hand. its hardly gonna kill a kid to be locked in their room for 10 minutes alone. but if it became her habit and she got sloppy about it, then she deserves some of the blame for the accident for sure. anyway, we know half the facts to make an accurate judgment. she may have a had a chronic migraine for all we know and went for painkillers. gonna wake up your kids when you have a migraine? no way. so we really cannot judge without knowing the full story.

have a kid, have some stress, need some nappies and juice, while you are learning to be a parent, semi solo or solo at that, one whole week of nothing but kid, no break...24 hours x 7 with no break and for once you forgot nappies just when your kid finally got to sleep. what do you do? wake him/her up? no way...you run to the 7/11 and back, coz you know if you wake that kid for a shop trip, that kid is not going back to sleep and you are already stretched. so you take a chance. next time you will know better but you just take this one chance...tragedy happens...I guarantee you this..every 1,000,000 times this happens a kid dies. 1 too many times is wrong and the mourning parents will agree with that, so give her a break. she may have done her very best for that kid from day one but may have been stretched beyond your gcom imagination. she just needed a few minutes and some nappies. Unfortunately a few minutes is all it took. Of course I may be wrong. she could have thrown the kid over. lets see what comes out in the wash.

RepublicofTexas,
how about people who just arrived in japan to study Japanese? What if romulus was one of them instead of being the great Japanese understander he is? Romulus blown up because local council is English retarded. My father would have destroyed them. English is not even my first language. It came after Sicilian, Hebrew, and Arabic...they could have at least made an attempt. no attempt was evident, even though I was enjoying my time away from my own house. She did not budge neither. The blast zone was miles away from where the earth already shook. I await the derogatory comments towards the handsome romulus from the local, average, gcom community...lets have at it!

he made his choice. No one forced his hand. He dies by the consequences of his own action. 21 is old enough to know the score.

once, when my kid was sleeping, I dashed to the comvenie to buy nappies and some juice, and left him alone but not before blocking his bedroom door and locking the front door. never run so fast and been so scared. will never do it again either. get your supplies before you put the kid down for the night. everyone makes this mistake at least once. I am sure the cops investigated and saw the possibility of an accident. I just hope it is not another infanticide case, but usually that would entail both kids and the mother making a swan dive. It seems like a very tragic accident and a painful lesson for the mother.

hahaha, romulus heard the fuss but stayed in bed. the siren in our building sounded and a voice came over the loud speaker. there notes posted all over the building and mail drops for a few days. not one word in English, no attempt to communicate with Gaijins. got home at 5am. had no interest in evacuating. never seen the place so quiet even though we were quite away from the potential blast zone.

trousers would be much better. You get a better impression of their hidden assets. I am all for trousers and to let my imagination do the rest.

I think that he must not have just taken a quick peek. He must have contorted his body and twisted his head and made a real scene to get busted.
