 Karen Edelman, a 43 year old woman from Long Island, NY, was charged with endangering the welfare of a child, unlawful possession of marijuana and resisting arrest. Police were contacted after neighbors had seen a child sitting alone in a car parked out on the street. When officials arrived they founs Edelmans one year old son sitting in the back seat of the vehicle alone. Turns out, while her child was alone in the car, the mother was inside the house smoking weed. Which i'm sure in a twisted way she thought she was protecting him by not smoking around or infront of him. But it is still incredibly wrong. Who leaves their kid unattended in a car? Let alone to go inside and smoke a little weed!? The funniest part is that when she was apprehended she told police that her reason for smoking the marijuana was because she was "feeling under the weather." Guess she figured it would be a good pick-me-up. After she realized she was being arrested she flipped out and began kicking and screaming at police. Social services were called and custody was granted to the boys father, where hopefully he will recieve better care and attention. Sad story of poor parenthood.
