Reb Yidd, this is not the type of thread for your jokes. Please either be serious or else take your comments to a different thread.

Actually, Rabbi Plony and I have marveled in horror at exactly the sort of behaviors that the OP and subsequent posters have described. Whenever we’re tempted to ask ‘Where are the parents?’ when we see tiny kids outside alone, we recall the drivers who apparently consider stop signs and red lights to be merely suggestions, and the pedestrians who have so much bitachon that they don’t even look before stepping into the roadway. (Okay, THAT was sarcasm.)

Aside from everybody venting in the Coffee Room, does anybody have any productive suggestions? All I can do on an individual basis is educate my own kids and maybe mussar the neighbors’ kids a little.
