Madlyn Primoff, 45, made good on the threat that so many parents make when their kids are squabbling in the car: She allegedly kicked them out on the curb, according to the Associated Press. Now, the Manhattan lawyer, who lives in the tony suburb of Scarsdale has been charged with child endangerment. 

Police say that Primoff left her daughters, ages 10 and 12, at a street corner in a business district in White Plains on Sunday evening. They were about three miles from their home.

According to the police report,  the older girl eventually caught up with her mother, but her sister was rescued by a “Good Samaritan” who called the police. Around the same time, the mother called the cops from home to report her daughter missing. Primoff was then directed to the White Plains police station, where she was arrested.
