I don't remember ever being left alone, but then, I come from a very large family, with 7 brothers, 3 sisters and 67 cousins out of my 5 uncles, and I am the youngest, so there was always a lot of older family members around me.

The point is that I don't know if what that guy did was justified or not, but it was definitively something that I will not do the day I have kids.
He should have left his kids with his family.
