On Monday, as soon as I came home with the kids from preschool, I went to 
the bathroom.  When I came out no more than a few minutes later, the 
lights were out and my daughter had already lit a candle on the table and 
put the box of matches back in the cupboard above the kitchen counter (she 
had dragged a chair into the kitchen to get the matches).  Did I "allow" 
her to take the matches, light the fire, and so on and so forth?
