Sure. Leave one kid stranded on the interstate, and all of the sudden, you're a bad parent. What's the matter with this country? Oh wait, they dropped the child-abuse charge. Whew.

A Lincoln soccer mom accused of slapping her daughter and then leaving her along Interstate 80 has been put on pretrial diversion. Authorities say 42 year old Terrell Mackey was upset with her teenage daughter on April 14 because the girl had played poorly in a soccer game.
Lincoln police say Mackey yelled at the 15 year old on their way home from the game, then ordered her to repeat lines about improving her performance. When the girl flubbed the lines, her mother slapped her, then pulled over along I-80 in Lincoln and told the girl to get out.
A teammate and her parent spotted the girl, took her to their home and called police. Mackey pleaded not guilty in May. After being approved for the diversion program, prosecutors have dropped a child-abuse charge.
