Well, Jerry Springer has fans, don'cha know, that are so wild about him that they even leave their kids home alone while they're off at a taping of his show, says the Chicago Tribune.
Really, couldn't the mother at least have left the three kids, aged 3 1/2 and under, home with her "boyfriend," instead of leaving then unattended for 9 hours? Is she stupid? (Well, maybe--she wanted to be in the Springer audience. I'd rather have a root canal or colonoscopy.)
I can't tell you how many times I have read such lines or heard them on the radio or television: "The Illinois Department of Children and Family Services has taken custody of the children and placed them in foster homes." What was scandalous when I was a teen is now routine.
