I didn't think you were

However if I was ever careless enough to do something like that, I'd imagine being constantly told I was stupid would probably push me over the edge. As is, I imagine the parents' state of mind to be extremely fragile. If we are going to play the blame game, let's at least wait until we've had an outcome, good or bad.

They weren't careless Russ. They made a choice. A stupid one. And whilst I agree with your most of your post, I for one am not 'blaming' anyone. But it's difficult not to think that if they hadn't made such a monumentally stupid selfish decision (which it was) to leave their children by themselves, it wouldn't have happened. And that's not 'judging' either. It kind of fact. IMO anyway.
