While dad was passed out at bar, 3-year-old son was wandering the streets; what happened to this boy's mother? (Wichita, Kansas)

Weird. For the second time today we have an UNNAMED DAD living in a motel with a toddler--and no mother around. And once again, the media isn't concerned or alert enough to ask why, or what happened to the mother.

This time Daddy left the kid while he went out drinking. Then Daddy passed out, and somebody found the kid wandering around a parking lot. The child is now in protective custody. Not with Mom.

So what happened to Mom? While did this boozing nitwit have possession/access to this child? Who gave him possession/access?
