What about when a parent forgets their child is in the backseat on a hot day and the child dies. Is that neglect or an oversight?

Depending upon the circumstances of the occurrence it could be neglect or oversight, however, the outcome remains a tragedy.

Tragic oversight.

Accidents happen. To punish a parent who just lost thier child due to their own fault is cruel. there doesnt seem to be any room for human error anymore.

On another note. Tax dollars are being spent on checking up on this family who accidently left the kid in the store. Waste of time and money. I am sure there are no other children in that city suffering from neglect.
