I find it very interesting that people will not judge a person for an action that one could imagine doing. My theory about why judges are more lenient on drunk drivers, than drug addicts, for example, is because judges are more likely to drive after drinking, than to smoke crack.
Forgetting that you did not stop at the babysitter's is horrible. Our media have decided not to publicize this all too frequent occurence because producers, editors, and talent probably all have children that they drive in their own minivans and SUVs. We hear about what happened to one foolish girl on vacation in Aruba for more than a year now. Her story is exotic. Dead babies from middle-class parents' neglect is too close to home.
You have a point.
Also, judging a person for an accidental act or omission is repulsive to me.
As a matter of fact, judging other people at all is a dangerous practice and is against the teaching of Christ.
