美国费城一位母亲因其2岁的儿子当街小便而被警察开了50美元的罚单,她表示要通过法律途径对此提出异议。据这位母亲称,上周日晚间,她和公婆以及三个年龄为9岁、6岁和2岁的孩子出去吃饭,之后到一家服装店闲逛。在此期间,两个孩子提出要上卫生间,但是服装店的员工拒绝让孩子使用店内卫生间,而2岁的孩子已经憋不住了,只好在街边的一根灯柱旁边解决问题。警察发现后便给这位母亲开出来一张50美元的罚单,并称“这样做是为了你好,说不准这附近就有个变态色狼正盯着你儿子呢”。当地警方发言人表示,他们一般都让警员通过自己的判断来执法,目前他们正在联络这名警官了解事情经过,然后才决定下一步措施。
A Philadelphia mom is peeved that police gave her a $50 ticket after her 2-year-old son peed against a street light post.
“I’m absolutely going to fight it,” Caroline Robboy told NBC News on Thursday. “It was a potty-training accident.”
Robboy’s legal hassle began Sunday night, she said, when she was out with her elderly in-laws and her three children, ages 9, 6 and 2. Her husband, an ob-gyn, was on the job, delivering babies.
After eating at a Johnny Rockets diner five blocks from their home in a high-rise, the family went across the street to a clothing store.
Robboy said two of her children told her they needed to go to the bathroom, but the store operators wouldn’t let them use their restroom. They headed back to the diner, but the 2-year-old couldn’t hold it.
“I told him to go over to a grassy patch and make pee,” Robboy told NBCPhiladelphia.com. “Next thing you know I have an officer giving me a police ticket for public urination!”
The officer wrote on the $50 ticket that Robboy told her son to go in the street and never acknowledged it was an accident. Robboy then claims the officer gave her a lecture on parenting.
“He said, ‘I’m doing this for your own protection because God forbid there might have been a pervert out there looking at my son,’” said Robboy.
“Every once in a while a 2-year-old catches you off guard,” she said.
“If this were my 9-year-old or 6-year-old I would have been mortified and would have had a much more adult conversation with him,” said Robboy, a licensed social worker and sex education counselor also trained in early childhood education issues.
Robboy tells NBC10 Nathaniel is a bright child who, aside from Sunday’s misfire, is doing well with his potty training. She also says she plans to fight the ticket.
“It’s not about the $50,” said Robboy. “I want a place that feels friendly to me where my children feel safe and have positive experiences with police officers.”
A spokesperson with the police department tells NBC10 they routinely allow their officers to use their own judgment and discretion. They're currently trying to contact the officer who issued the ticket to get his side of the story before they take any action.
