Mother leaves children on Poland mountain trail for 'whining', hikes to summit alone

A mother left her two children alone on the Bieszczady Mountains hiking trail in southern Poland on Saturday because they were "whining" and she wanted to reach the summit alone.

"We are near the point where the blue and yellow trails split above Muczne. We are hiking with a group from the PTTK branch in Rzeszow. Suddenly we hear a piercing sob and a child’s scream. We stop, and two boys – a crying eight-year-old and his fourteen-year-old brother – are standing, bewildered, by the side of the trail," the Rzeszow branch of the Polish Tourist and Sightseeing Society (PTTK) wrote on its Facebook profile.
