WTF really?
It was the man's choice if he wanted to risk his life for his child's...

He was trying to do what any parent would do for their children.

I wonder if the baby would have survived had they not restrained the father?

Personally I'd rather burn to death in a fire doing everything I can to save my kids lives then spending the rest of my life not knowing if they could have been saved.

Me too.  How will that father live without wanting revenge on those that stopped him.

And folks wonder why I don't trust cops?

The cops should have been running in and trying to save the baby if they didn't want the parent to do it himself.

Serve the public my ass.  They serve themselves.

I think I would be tempted if I were that dad.

Very hard call here to what is right and wrong.    Split second decisions that will last a life time for both sides.   

Have to talk to a fireman---Shout out to Nads on this and know a lot more before we point fingers.   

Smoke kills very fast, the child so young with not mature lungs or a way to get out may have been dead from inhalation of fumes before the firemen and parents got home.   

It is said the Grandparents took one child out to safety forgetting about the baby.  If the baby were still alive they would have heard it Screaming and remembered it. 

It is the job of the firemen and police to save lives not just shrug when someone is in danger.   They talk down bridge jumpers that want to end it all, prevent people from taking their lives into their own hands, suicide or not knowing how to swim react to save someone drowning, some times the rescuers are killed themselves by people in shock try to get their loved ones to safety.   

First rule of first responders is to insure their and onlookers safety is secured.    Had the father gone into a burning building even to rescue his baby would mean the fireman would have to follow him in to rescue Him at danger to themselves.   

A close call here.

This is a natural progression. The state knows better than parents.

I feel so bad for the father. As a dad, I can only imagine that he'll be haunted for the rest of his life that he was kept from trying to save his child's life.
Let nothing trouble you,
Let nothing frighten you. 
All things are passing;
God never changes.
Patience attains all that it strives for.
He who has God lacks nothing:
God alone suffices.

Chase her.

No Vesta it is NOT a hard call to make at all.  Period.
