/someone should set up a scholarship for the kid when she reaches collage age.

as opposed to a 3-year-old teenager? adult? big girl?


still cool and all that, but what about using the telephone? cell-phone?

I would've liked to heard that she used other methods that didn't put herself in more danger.

then again, for efficiency, it was probably quicker than trying to get answers from a 3-year-old on the phone. and yes, 911 would probably have some info, but what if she was on a cell phone?

She's a toddler who did the best she could and it worked.

And my allergies are now making me grumpy. Don't mind me.

Shes not a fatty.

anyone want to make some bets on when the first "OMG! Why must you use the word hero??? THAT isn't a hero!!!" comment shows up?

3- and 4-year-olds are scary smart now. We've taught them how to use the phones, and everything.

Never underestimate a kid on a mission. That kid might be waiting for his PB&J sandwich. And Lord help you if you don't have a cold glass of milk. Don't mess with that child.

w00t! brave toddlers FTW!!!!!

I could read independently at a kindergarten level at age 2. I knew my address by then too, and could rattle it off quite easily. I wasn't especially intelligent for my age, I had a parent that spent time with me, and didn't use baby talk. Kids are far more clever than people give them credit for.

Big deal. I walk past a fire station every day and no one has to collapse for me to do it.

drachen: turn her over to CVS? what would a pharmacy want with a 3 year old?

Sure, why not. They sell beer, cigarettes, you can check your blood pressure, and you gobs of candy, too!



/what a CVS might look like

Ok, guy amost kills himself with medication. But he had displayed good parenting skills and seems to have a smart daughter.

Darwin is confused.

So to preface, my fiancee lives with her brother and his kid, i was over there one day last week and noticed a golf ball under her bed, which i thought was weird, since she doesnt golf... I inquired, she said it was our nephews, that he dropped it back there a week or two ago but hadnt been able to reach it and she didnt want to move her bed.

So on saturday me and her took him to the zoo, had a great time, hes in the train phase, got to ride on the zoo train, bought him a lion moldarama because hes loving the lion king right now too. He also saw another kid with a shark head grabber thing and he wanted one. It was only like $3, aunt and uncle, our job to spoil him anyway. He wouldnt put down the shark head on a stick and made it 'eat' everything in sight, which was pretty amusing, but anyway, we get back to the house, he runs straight into her room with the shark, sticks it under her bed and comes back out with his golf ball.
