There was a girl, walking around earlier in her school uniform. Its the middle of the school day, but I figured she was just a delinquent. I used to skip school too. She looked the age for that sort of behavior. Turns out it was my neighbors 12 year old daughter, who was kicked out, clothes and all, by her mother. Her father, my neighbor and cousin, was at work and she didn't want to just deal with the fathers girlfriend, so she walked up and down the street a bit, until the old lady across the street recognized her and alerted the fathers girlfriend.

I shutter at the thought of what could have gone wrong, had this girl decided to go it alone instead of seeking out her father. Shes frighteningly developed for a girl so young. God I hope I never have a daughter.

The theory thus far, according to my neighbor, is that the mother threw the girl out so she (the mother) could take a long weekend with her boyfriend. Its only Thursday, this should get mildly interesting between now and Monday.
