Grandma arrested for driving with child on roof

Thu Aug 7, 7:54 PM ET

MARATHON, Fla. - Authorities say a grandmother was arrested for driving around the parking lot of a Marathon grocery store with her 3-year-old child sitting on the roof of the car.


Monroe County Sheriff's Office deputies were called to the Publix store Tuesday and arrested a 54-year-old woman after she was driving around with her three-year-old granddaughter on the roof of her car.

The grandmother was released from jail 15 hours later.

The woman said Thursday she would never let anything hurt her granddaughter. She says she was driving at "snail-speed" and holding the child's leg.

Authorities say the woman told police she was giving the child some air and letting her have fun.

She faces charges of child abuse. The child is back with her mother.

Does she not know that the child could have fallen off and been ran over even at a very low speed. What an idiot!

I don't think it's too young to be a grandmother, especially if the child is only three. The child was born when the grandmother was 50 or 51. If the grandmother was 51 when the child was born, for example, the birth parent could have been 22 (which means the grandmother had him or her at 28), 25 (which means the grandmother had him or her at 25), or even 30 (which means that the grandmother had him or her at 21) when the child was born. Those are perfectly normal age ranges for parents and grandparents. Now, if the grandmother had been 34 or something, then yes, that would have raised an eye.

And why didn't my grandmother ever have this kind of fun with me?

*giggle*
