        I feel bad for them. Now all these legal fees to pay. They need help not criticism. GOFUNDME account, maybe? I'd donate.

        I heard two local attorneys have offered to represent them pro Bono. People around here are rallying to help, I think.

        In a nation where we pride ourselves in putting families first countless families are forced to make extreme childcare choices.

        Sad story but happens a lot Oklahoma cut funding for daycare assistance, will probably happen even more. Families need help.

        The kids were too young to be left by themselves in a public place. They could have been taken by a pedophile or human trafficker
