When I was 7......


if my 3 year old sister wandered away or went off with someone when she was standing with me I would have screamed bloody murder.

I agree. I'm the oldest sister in my family and I was use to holding the hand of a little sister. Even at age 5 and she was 2. If she let go or wandered off I'd yell mainly because I'd get in trouble.

But it's wrong to put the blame on a kid.

Vincent was tired and hot. I think he was just sick of dealing with a little brother and having to watch him yet again. Have any of you seen the Face On The Milk Carton starring Kellie Martin? Similar story where a big brother was watching his little sister. He admits to being sick of her and pushes her saying “Get lost.” He carries the guilty for many years. He didn’t mean for his sister to get lost. As a big sister I can relate but I would hope I would have screamed if my little sister wandered off.
