Your views about day care are not everyone's views, you know that right?
You are aware that some people on FR have babies in daycare, right? So why voice your inflammatory ideas just now on this thread?
We have alarms for every kind of contingency. Our pool had an alarm that went off if something over a few pounds hit the water, just in case. We have fire and smoke alarms. We have alarms to not leave keys in car. We have alarms to tell us to put on seat belts.
So we must be forgetful, careless, get distracted, etc. So a baby alarm seems reasonable to me. People are human, they make egregious mistakes.
Do you know what a hideous death that child suffered? And for what?
