ailbheA woman has been arrested after her baby was rescued from a smoke-filled house.
There were three children alone in the house, aged about 1, about 2, and about 3 (the one-year-old is the "baby" of the headline). Clearly she was wrong to leave them alone in the house.
But oh, by all the gods, I can think of so many ways to talk myself into thinking it might be ok. One year, two years, and three years. Gods.
I wonder have they any other parent, and will that other parent also be charged.
