@insideedition: A Florida woman who is being called a 'real life "Home Alone" mom was arrested while returning from a Las Vegas work trip, authorities said. Irene Miller, 50, allegedly left her four children, ages 9, 11,12 and 14, at home, overnight, without adult supervision. Inside Edition's Ann Mercogliano spoke exclusively with the mom's estranged husband, Mark Miller, who is now looking after the kids. A GoFundMe has been set up to help Miller and the kids.

Are we serious? I PAY a 14 year old to watch my kids in the summer. Why can’t her 14 year old watch their siblings??

I was 11-12 staying home alone I think it’s just all maturity at this point it’s not like they were toddlers but I do get it though no children that age should be left home alone overnight especially a few days but hours like during work hours mom or dad is working and the kids aren’t in school I see nothing wrong with it that’s just my opinion

I was 12 babysitting other people’s children. A 12 year old can’t watch themselves??? This is ridiculous.

maybe it's just me but I don't see a problem for a 14-year-old kid to watch their siblings. um if that was the case we'd all have been in trouble back in the 70s.

He probably refused to watch the kids because "it wasn't his time".

So she needed to go on a trip for WORK so that she could make money to support her kids and her ex-husband knew this and instead of taking the kids to care for them he called the cops on her so that

This is ridiculous. They were all older capable children. They even took care of each other during an emergency.

MamaLea.5 :
seriously? I was babysitting at 12 and multiple children. I don't know I'd leave my kids for 4 days without someone checking in on them or to contact in an emergency but really that's old enough to be home alone.

I’m sorry I’m not trying to sound some kind of way but where was this man when childcare was needed? The mother of his children needed to go out of town on a work trip to make some money to provide for her family and this man couldn’t be bothered to take care of said children, but he can come out of the woodwork to talk to the media… why is nobody talking about this part?
