Do you think Erin was wrong to leave her kids home alone for 11 days?


30 y/o Heifer, Erin Lee Macke left her 4 kids HOME ALONE so she could go on an 11 day trip to Germany!!

Iowa conducted a welfare check on the house after receiving a tip that her kids, 12 y/o twins (a boy and a girl) and a 7 y/o girl and 6 y/o girl were left alone...they found out that not only were they alone but that they had been left alone with a GUN OUT IN THE OPEN!!

According to the complaint, she left an unloaded Glock 8MM handgun on the top of her dresser next to 2 magazines, one fully loaded and one partially loaded.

The kids said their mom left for Germany the day before and wasn't coming home until Oct.1

When they called her from abraod, she said that all of her babysitters fell through so she decided to leave them home alone

Police said she made no arrangements to provide adult supervision or care for the children while away and ordered her to return home immediately..

She only lasted 4 days before returning and was promptly arrested with 4 counts of child endangerment and 1 count of making a firearm available to a person under the age of 21

In Iowa if a kid is not injured or killed to child endangerment, it's aggravated misdemeanor with a sentence up to 2 YEARS in jail or one year in jail and a fine of 625 to 6250. The gun charge is the serious misdemeanor with up to a year in jail and a fine of 315 to 1875

Tyler Tompkins of the Johnston Police said he's never heard anything like this before as he's heard of parents going out for a night and asking the neighbors next door to watch their kids but never one where a parent leaves the country.

It's not clear why she left to Germany but it is a popular time to visit Europe at the end of September because of Oktoberfest.

Pictures of Erin's time in Germany were posted on instagram where her kids could CONTACT her from..

The Iowa Dept of Human Services took custody of her children and have been placed in extended family members homes..

She may not have contact with her children and is due back in court Oct. 9

Do you think Erin was wrong to leave her kids home alone for 11 days? let's see what people think

"Kids, mommy is going to Germany for 11 days, K? There's an unloaded gun and some ammo on my dresser, the medicine cabinet is wide open, if you don't feel like cooking, you can just eat the candy in the little orange bottles, that should fill you up. Also Jerry, the convicted sex offender who lives next door, will be dropping in periodically to check on you guys, make sure you listen and do what he tells you as he is an authority figure and has previous experience handling kids......ok, that's pretty much it.......oh, and there's a gas leak in the house, you'll need to call a technician to come out and get that fixed. Ok, be good now! Mommy sort of loves you!"

Probably something along those lines.

In addition to all of the things that just happened, if my math is correct, she had the twins at 18.. I can' imagine being a parent of one, let alone two kids at that age, sometimes I couldn't even take care of myself o.0.

No, too young to be left alone that long. If it were a day or two, that would probably be fine. But nearly 2 weeks...just no. The oldest would at the very least need to be in their teens and able to drive legally to be considered adult enough.

When i was 13 my parents left me with my 8 year old sister alone for five days to go to some vacation retreat. We did fine it wasn't too hard to catch the bus to school and cook diner.

I assume she left the hand gun so the kids can hunt gophers for dinner or something? Maybe rob a hooker while they're at it?

If one of them was at least old enough to drive it would have been different, but yeah, that's a little young.
