A Georgia mom was outraged that she was arrested and is now being asked to sign a form pledging "her children would always be under a watchful eye" -- all because she allowed her preteen son to walk less than a mile alone, NBC News reported.
The Fannin County Sheriff's Department picked up Brittany Patterson's then-10-year-old son when they saw him walking alone along a road near his family home. They dropped him off and she thought it was the end of it until deputies returned hours later to arrest her for suspicion of reckless conduct.
