[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 239973, member: 3419"] Idiots. Yes, I know they used to have kids watch younger kids in the "Olden Days." A lot of kids died back then, too, needlessly. I live near Colonial Wmsbg and on the tours, they have a house with-a [B][I]huge[/I][/B] fireplace where they hang an iron pot for cooking. They often tell tourists that little kids died when their clothes caught fire when they were too close. In England, Bull Terriers (the ancestors of our pit bulls) used to guard the babies and the houses while the parents worked in the field. I'm sure they were perfect for alerting the parents to intruders, but not so good at cooking and cleaning. :) So, maybe the 5-yr-old accidentally let the dog out and they said that s/he had to get the dog, as a consequence? This is the same family who let the kid play near the pond this summer, right? Let us know what happens, Susie. [/QUOTE]
