All right-thinking people, as far as I can tell, agree that Montgomery County is acting in a callous and stupid way by threatening kidnap the children — ages 10 and six — who were allowed to walk a mile home from a local park and by intrusively investigating the parents for this non-crime.

There’s more disagreement, however, on whether the parents acted stupidly or irresponsibly by allowing their two kids to walk home together from the park.
