MicaR discovered 3 months ago- Unbelievable. I am finding more and more examples of this type of ridiculousness. Time to get off this crazy merry-go-round...

- It's a scary world when a child can be taken away by the government when a parent makes an honest mistake. Christ, the man was taking his kid to a baseball game and ordered him a lemonade, and suddenly he is a villain? As hard as most parents try to give their child the best upbringing possible, nobody is perfect. Let's use some common sense, please.

- How was the father to know, this was an alcoholic beverage if it wasn't on the label? Give me a break

- 7 YEAR OLD BOY PLACED IN STATE CARE OVER 'LEMONAIDE'. Christopher Ratte took his 7-year-old son to a baseball game at Comerica Park. He ordered a lemonade from a vendor and gave it to his boy. Unbeknownst to Ratte (a professor of classical archaeology at the University of Michigan) it was "hard" lemonade, meaning it contained alcohol. When a guard spotted the boy sipping from the bottle, the police were called in, the boy was taken from his father, driven by ambulance to the hospital, and put into foster care.

- how the heck could you not know that you're giving your kid an alcoholic beverage?..Either way, it's neglectful parenting..

- Yep. Just this weekend we went to a wedding. I wasn't aware until this evening, but evidently, the owner of the "establishment" thought my 10-year old daughter was drinking champagne. I filled her glass, as well as that of her sister, with Sprite so they didn't feel left out in the toast to the Bride and Groom. She evidently asked the father of the Bride if he was aware my fucking 10-year old was drinking alcohol. I guess it wasn't enough of a concern for the bitch to ask me, her father about it. Never mind all of the other underage drinking that actually was going on. Fuck that. If you have beef, fucking address me like an adult. Cunt. Fuck. Now I'm all pissed off...
