friend through out my son on a sleep over?
Boys were making excessive noise and the parent of the boy my son had the sleep over with, told him to leave.
This was around 4 AM in the morning and temperature was - 6 C
He had not coat just a thin hoody on over a tee shirt.
We live in the country and the walk here would be 24 KM
There was no cell service till he had walked over 7 KM's I got the call then form his cell at about 5:45 AM and he was shivering on the phone. I picked him on on the highway at that time. hands were beet red and he was very cold. I had made a point of telling this parent I would come and pick him up at anytime of the night or day, just call me. She never did Hes a small boy for his age of 16 only 5 foot 3 and about 100 lbs.
Do you think this was the right thing for her to do, after I told her to call me.
Small people die here form being exposed in cold weather.

Do to others as you would like others to do to you !!
How would that mother like it if you had asked her child to vacate your premises at 4AM,without being adequately dressed? She used poor judgement, and placed your child at risk for frostbite or worse. Your child could have been hit by a car, or molested at that time in the morning.That woman should be arrested for endangering the life of your child.
"Child endangerment" is a criminal offense that involves the subjection of minor children to inappropriate or dangerous situations. It is not the same as child abuse, which involves direct harm to children, but carries a similar penalty in the American judicial system.
The purpose of child endangerment laws is to keep children from witnessing adult or illegal activity, and to protect them from situations in which they might get hurt.

I think I may have called the police over this. I would seriously consider taking some sort of legal action against them. Your son could've been seriously injured or died and these "parents" would have been responsible. There is no excuse.

WOW!!!! I would have drove to the house, banged on the door, rang the phone so she could see how cold and how long he had been outside freezing.
Even if you had not told her to call...thats what she should have done! Call that women and give her a piece of your mind.
