Early this morning at about 1AM my youngest son called me and told me
that someone had set fire to their car. It was parked in front of
their house and had both of the grandgirls seats in it. Now they have
no car, no carseats and no way for him to get back and forth to work.

Oh, Good Lord, Kathy, that's terrible! But I AM glad that no one got
hurt.
What about insurance? Usually, auto insurance will give you a rental
and will pay for items damaged in the car. They should read their
policy VERY carefully to see what they've got coming to them.
Also, depending on the state, many state governments offer a "crime
compensation" program - meaning, if they're the victims of a crime,
they can get reimbursed for time lost at work, property damage, etc.
What state do they live in? I don't mind doing the leg work to find out
if their state has a program like that ....
Big hugs, Kathy!! Ya'll are in our thoughts!!

What kind of car was it? Ford Explorers have been known to spontaneously
combust. Volkswagens (I speak from personal experience here) have been
also. It may not have been arson but faulty engineering. Of course, that
doesn't resolve the problems of no transportation or car safety seats, but
perhaps gives a direction your son can follow to get
assistance/restitution.

Oh Kathy, I'm so sorry. What the hell is wrong with people?! I just don't
understand...
