I guess that she was trying to protect her kids from attackers from the outside and didn't stop to think that they would be trapped in case of fire. Not sure how old the kids were, but yeah bad decision.
So good that it turned out ok in the end. :)

They are lucky to be alive. Either way two young kids should not have been left alone, would love to know where the mother went ?? They build their security around prison principles to keep the constant theives out. I stayed up by Oresseuy market and the hotels are death traps in a fire with only the long jump as an option for escape. luckily PP so the cops are active and don't want fires spreading.
