That's like saying you don't wear seat belts when you drive because they keep you in your seat.

YEAH, WELL ... DUH!

That woman needed to have her kids taken from her for a few days and be told they were in the hospital due to carbon monoxide poisoning, may that would get her to start thinking about things in the right perspective ... nah, wouldn't do any good. Darwin Award candidate there.
