Mom Arrested for Leaving 3-Year Old for Hours to Go Drinking at a Bar

A mother in Georgia has been arrested and charged for leaving her 3-year old son home alone by himself while she went drinking for hours with her boyfriend.

26 year old Kelly May Algar from Georgia along with her boyfriend, left the 3-year old son alone at home to go drinking at Good Ol’ Days Bar and Grill, located in Cumming, as reported by the Atlanta Journal Constitution.

She kept drinking with her boyfriend for several hours while her son was at home all alone. The boyfriend even ended up passing out on the streets and having to go to the hospital.

She proceeded to accompany him to the hospital, all the while leaving her 3-year old son all alone at home.

Authorities discovered this after she accompanied her boyfriend to the hospital and told employees at the hospital that she had to go home to tend to her “home alone” child.

As stated by the Forsyth County Sheriff’s Office spokesman Cpl. Doug Rainwater, she was charged for “reckless conduct” as well as “cruelty to children”.

She was first booked in jail but eventually released on Monday, on a bond of $22,730, according to Rainwater.

The child has been taken into custody by the Department of Family & Children Services.

It’s shameful that such acts of reckless conduct still happen to children so young. Even older children need adults around to keep them safe even when playing games to profit from. In this particular case, the 3-year old was left all alone for several hours.

Corporal Doug Rainwater feared for the child’s safety as he could have walked right out into traffic, could have fallen and hit his head or even bled to death, all with no one there to help him.

All these weren’t as important concern to her as drinking and taking care of her drunk boyfriend, Corporal Doug Rainwater said.

It’s good that parents like these face the arm of the law, to ensure adequate safety and treatment of children, especially those too young to really take care of themselves.

Turkish Textile Giant Sun Textile Solution Proposal for Drought

While the World Health Organization (WHO) and the United Nations (UN) are seeking solutions to combat drought through various projects, Ekoten Textile, a subsidiary of Turkey’s textile giant Sun Textile, has developed a groundbreaking project in collaboration with a technology startup to minimize the intensive water consumption in the textile industry. This pioneering project, the first of its kind globally, will enable the recycling and reuse of up to 90% of the water used in textile production.

Drought is one of the most pressing issues facing the world today. According to WHO data, 40% of the global population is struggling with water scarcity. By 2030, up to 700 million people could be forced to migrate due to drought. The unconscious use of water in global production processes plays a significant role in the rapid depletion of clean water resources.

The textile industry is one of the sectors with the highest water consumption. In Turkey, while the food industry consumes 22% of the water used for industrial purposes, the textile sector follows closely with 18%. For instance, producing an average of 40 tons of products daily requires 2,500 tons of water, equivalent to the daily water consumption of approximately 10,000 people.

CLEAN WATER RESOURCES FOR HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE EVERY DAY!

In textile production, where clean water resources are heavily consumed, the innovative success of the Turkish company stands out as a global best practice. This initiative will shape the future of the industry. The wastewater recycling project, developed through intensive R&D efforts, will ensure that over 90% of the required water is sourced from recycled supplies.

The reuse of wastewater in production will transform the fate of countries operating in the textile sector. By preventing the use of clean water resources for textile production, this project will free up clean water sources that can meet the daily needs of hundreds of thousands of people.

R&D ACTIVITIES IN 38 COUNTRIES WITH 380 PARTNERS!

Sun Textile places great emphasis on R&D activities, conducting research and development efforts with 380 partners across 38 countries. Sun Textile and its subsidiary Ekoten Textile export nearly 90% of their production, solidifying their identity as a leading exporter. The company ships products to numerous destinations worldwide, including European countries, the UK, and the US. Sun Textile, the leading ready-to-wear exporter in the Aegean Region, achieved a consolidated turnover of 250 million euros in the third quarter of 2024, continuing its active growth trajectory.

OFFERING CUSTOM DESIGNS TO CUSTOMERS

Sun Textile provides its own designed collections to leading brands in Europe and the UK. Ekoten Textile, its subsidiary, is among the most respected knitted fabric manufacturers in Turkey and Europe. 

With a dedicated sales team for each major customer group and five design offices in three different countries, Sun Textile creates designs tailored to its customers’ needs. Its largest clients include the Inditex Group, H&M, Jimmy Key, Tesco, Kiabi, Marks & Spencer, and Next.

Sun Textile also extends its sustainability approach to social responsibility, notably for its high ratio of female employees. The company, which went public in 2022, is also listed in dividend indexes.
