Without the right intent, one doesn't get into purgatory #1023 explains how to get into purgutory...It didn't mention "right intent." Normally, babies are Baptized...how do you define a baby having "right intent"?

Right intent implies competence to make a decision, does it not? Babies are further removed from consideration by incapacity. In short, we must presume they are innocent. St. Augustine, of course, had another view on infancy, but I don't think the Church has followed him on this matter.
As to the general question, How do we get into purgatory? By God's grace.
