Also, the explanation for leaving the patio door unlocked was incase of fire that kids could get out I believe? How did they expect their 2 2 year olds to get out of their cots though?

But didn't someone say that Madeline wasn't strong enough to open the patio doors,so they couldn't have got out anyway.
