at the number of campers deciding to spend the weekend in forests with wildfires all around. Why not just stay home in these perilous times?

My sister, age 11, was walking me home. We saw neighbors burning garbage in a large metal drum. It was non-burning season. My sister left me and ran home to tell my mother. I complained about my sister leaving me. My mother said it was urgent ... she had to call the fire department to stop those people from burning even in a metal drum. A spark could start a forest fire and we would all be in danger. So I was 5 and my sister was 11. I can’t believe those people will be parents soon and that anyone allows them to use matches.

They have also demonstrated that they are too stupid and careless to be responsible parents.
