Kids playing on a roof.....

[InletBchDweller]

Yep, that is what I just saw. 2 kids running on their roof.
Running to the front and back and then right to the edge and sitting down....
Where are the parents?
What to do? call the cops? Child Services?
I swear this is a crazy world....

Saw the same thing at our neighbor's house last summer. There were renters there, and a small girl (I'd guess about 4) was on the 3rd floor porch climbing over the railing and then climbing onto the roof! I was afraid to say anything because I didn't want to criticize the parents' or babysitter's child-care skills. But after a few minutes when no one intervened, I was about to have a heart attack. I said, "Honey, you need to stop climbing on the railing and roof. You'll fall and hurt yourself badly." She went inside, and I never saw her do it again. Clearly no one was watching her.:shock:

We had some renters who were inside drinking while their teenagers were smoking marijuana outside and jumping from the second floor porch into the pool (a long way considering that we have 10 ft. ceilings)! This was observed by one of our neighbors who notified us. Now there is a notice on the wall that says the rental company will evict anyone who does this, without any refund. At least they weren't diving from the third floor porch. Double :shock:.

Kids, as in 5 yr. olds? Or kids, as in 15 yr. olds? Mr. JR said they used to do stuff like that all the time as stupid, young teens.
Can you yell over to them rather than call the cops?

My former neighbors used to sunbath on their roof during the cooler months when the Sun was shining.

Ain't gonna happen.

Didn't you see the video of the middle aged woman jumping on the trampoline? I don't want to end up on Youtube.

We heard today that a sophmore girl from Louisville died in Destin this week (conflicting reports- booze and/or heart issue) and a Louisville boy died while carsurfing today in PCB. I know the father of the girl, and we are waiting to hear about the boy since he went to one of the bigger Catholic schools and it is very possible we know of his family too.

Someone please explain to me again why high school kids are allowed to be unsupervised out of state?

Sorry IBD to hijack your kids on the roof thread. Maybe if they live through this period of their lives unsupervised, they can go on spring break and die a senseless death too.

:scratch: I'm trying to recall with whom I was recently talking who said that their kid jumped off the roof of the house and into a trash can.
