Profile For SouthWestSon

Thank you for your input drivers. I had the same conclusions prior to asking the question. I was asking to get validation on the matter. This is why I asked.

I have been raising my grandson since birth, he is now 10. We are going through a contentious custody battle right now. My wife and I have had permanent kinship guardianship since he was 1 1/2 years old. His father (not my son) now wants to be in his life. There is a Guardian Ad Litem (GAL) involved and she arranged for my grandson to visit over a weekend in May and again a couple of weeks ago. Both visits he felt it was okay to leave my grandson alone in a running Semi as he took a shower at a Pilot in Albuquerque. I about flipped when I learned of it and I immediately notified the GAL. I am so grateful that nothing bad happened, but I couldn't sleep for some nights thinking of what could have happened.

Again, I appreciate your responses and validation of what a regular person may have thought on the matter. We have court next week. This is definitely going to come up.

Good day Drivers,

Just as the title implies. What are your thoughts on leaving a 10 year old in a running semi-truck while the driver takes a shower (30 minutes) at a truck stop?
