(17 posts)What if a kid described as having hair that fell into his eyes was reported to have been seen meandering near your home at the time your home was broken into? And what if a kid with hair hanging in his eyes was later seen late a night near your home?
Would your husband watch him walk or run away? Or would he try to keep an eye on him so that he could tell the police where he was so that he could be questioned? Unless you or someone close to you has been the victim in such a circumstance, you can't really imagine the desire - the need - to have the apprehension and prosecution of the responsible party occur.
Keep in mind that we aren't talking about someone just walking down the street. We are talking about someone who is not known to live in the area, wandering around homes, standing and looking at homes, late at night. This is suspicious behavior.
We all have the right to walk where ever we want, and we have the right to stop and look at what ever we want, but if you choose to do so in an area where folks don't know you, and late at night, you take a chance that you will draw suspicion. As I said, its a result of the times we now live. If parents don't want their kids being brought home by police, then they need to make sure their kids are not wandering around strange neighborhoods late at night displaying suspicious behavior.
