Stupid news

I saw this story... and I just HAD to post it....

Boy, 6, Misses Bus, Steals Family Sedan

First... WHO was in-charge of the 6 year old? Who was supposed to get the kid up, ready for school and out the door. Not MOM apparently:

The boy, whose name wasn't released, missed the bus, took the car keys and drove
nearly six miles on Route 360, about 61 miles east of Richmond, while his mother
was asleep.

Well.... this explains it all:

The boy told police he learned to drive playing Grand Theft Auto and other
video games.

Lovely. 6 year olds are not supposed to be playing GTA for goddness sake. Its an ADULT Game!! I'll give the kid some props though for how close he got:

Police said he made at least two 90-degree turns, passed several cars and ran
off the rural two-lane road several times before hitting an embankment and
utility pole about a mile and a half from school.

It ended like this:

Northumberland County Sheriff Chuck Wilkins said 26-year-old Jacqulyn Deana
Waltman is being held without bond. Forty-year-old David Eugene Dodson was
released on a $5,000 bond. The boy and his 4-year-old brother were placed in
protective custody.

I hope they make them take parenting classes. Dumb asses.
