I picked up my daughter from school today. It was raining pretty hard. As I approached the school on foot I saw a man walking away. He was carrying a small child, kindergarten age I guess. The kid was entirely inside a plastic bag. It was a clear, see-through bag, maybe a dry-cleaning bag for a coat or something. The boy's head was in the bottom of the bag, and the top of the bag was hanging past the kid's feet. The kid was drowsing on the guy's shoulder (either falling asleep or, I don't know, maybe SUFFOCATING!)

I (and a few of the Moms in the area) called out to him, "Hey, buddy!" But he just kept walking. I ran up to him and tapped him on the shoulder: "Excuse me -- you can't do that! You can't put a kid in a plastic bag!" He limply pulled at the bag to show that it contained some air as well as a kid, then started to walk away.

My question is -- what do you do? I'll tell you what I did: I reached out with two hands, grabbed the bag in front of the kid's face (it's over the guy's shoulder, remember) and ripped an enormous hole in the bag -- then walked away.

I think that's the right answer.
