Sad comment on our society when a parent has to be reminded their child is in the car.
Exactly, when my kids or my grandkids were in my vehicle I was usually talking to them and if they went to sleep, I was checking them out in the rear view mirror.
Who can resist watching a sleeping child anyway?
We lived a long way from everything and spent a lot of time in the car and took that opportunity to learn or just have conversations. I really don’t understand how anyone could not know their child is in the car.
i agree
I stayed at home with my kids. I couldn’t be by myself for 2 minutes usually and if i ever got an hour off i constantly felt like i’d forgotten something.
You can’t build that instinct if a babysitter has your kids more than you do.
