was waiting at a luggage carousel at an airport one time....very small child was climbing onto the carousel, crawling on it, etc. the adults in charge of him were chatting away oblivious...I watched and thought it was not my business....but my mommy instincts forced me to point out the adults the danger if the carousel started. They said something like "we just got him" so don't know if a new adoption or what....I tried to mind my own business but if that kid had got caught in a moving carousel I wouldn't have been able to live with myself. If they had told me to bug off, I would have been ok because at least I tried.
also, I'm all for individual freedom, but if someone chooses to ignore common sense either for themselves or their loved ones and ends up requiring constant care...then the family should be responsible for the cost of the care....but that won't be the case....Medicaid will be paying for it and thus it becomes our business as tax payers
