Boy Breaks Into Couple’s Home To Play With Their Dogs, Parents Don’t Think It’s A Big Deal
Kids can be a whirlwind. One second they’re right in front of you, and the next they’re off doing something wildly chaotic or even dangerous.
That’s exactly what happened to this Redditor, except she wasn’t the parent chasing after the little one. Instead, she found herself on the receiving end when her neighbor’s young son managed to sneak away from home and break into hers—not once, but several times. Inside, he played with her dogs, flipped on the TV, raided her fridge, and acted as if he lived there.
What made it worse was that his parents didn’t seem nearly as alarmed as she was. Frustrated and concerned, she turned to the internet for advice on how to handle a situation that was quickly becoming more than just an innocent game.

WHY does everyone immediately jump on the ''autism'' excuse?! And a fkn excuse it is. It's just a greedy, entitled little b*****d. I'd wait until I saw it coming, then spread many, many thumbtacks on the floor on the inside side the dog door (having first safely removed the dogs) Or ''accidentally'' dump a very large bucket of ice and water from an upstairs window. By the time it's thirteen it'll be an armed burglar.

CPA!!! That child is ripe for kidnapping, running around unsupervised. Also, a neighbor's house was broken into by a pair of crooks, one of whom was skinny enough to use their dog door (with a lot of shoving from his accomplice). Locking dog tags sounds like a good idea.

A flamethrower to get rid of à spider? Talk about overkill! Unless OP lives in Australia. In that case... nuff said.

I'd probably use a propane torch on a wolf spider with babies on her back too!!
