Amazing.....several times last summer. Do these people ever forget the kid during the spring, winter or fall? Makes me ill....and mad!
How do you forget your child?
The most boneheaded I've ever been is when I closed the trunk on fingers...once and only once...but leaving the child strapped in the carseat?
No flippin' way.
Well, if a baby is forgotten in the other seasons, it's much more likely to be fine (hungry and wet, but still alive). Even in winter, if a baby is bundled up, an unheated car still provides protection from the cold. But in summer heat, the car becomes the killer, instead of shelter.
That's a really interesting question. I don't recall any stories of children freezing to death in a car......I wonder why?
