Baby forgotten in car - diesFollow

Bad form new guy, enjoy sub-default.

If you want to do page claims, you willl be rated sub-d, so just expect it. I'm going to rate you down every time I see one of your posts today, too, because you didn't know this rule.

Just one of lifes little lessons. Live and learn, live and learn.

Back off Senjiow, Kaelesh is my mortal enemy and I am not in the mood to share.

I don't pick my enemies, they pick me, but you can have him. He isn't worth my very well paid time.

That sounds like my kind of residence.

Sorry, Stubsy, I couldn't help it.

Yes, Ambrya, but I've seen pictures of your children. They're so beautiful, they shine with their own inner light and there is no chance you would miss them in the back of your car.

Kids are tricksy. I used to climb like a little monkey. A neighbor called my mom one time to tell her I was walking across the top of the swing set. Another time I was on the roof. /shrug

My older brother flagged down the mailman with his diaper once (my brother's diaper, not the mailman's. As far as I know). The dog once kept me from running into the road by holding onto my shirt while I screamed bloody murder.

We were lucky. Not everyone is.

Sounds similar to me - constantly climbing trees, walking along the tops of unfinished building frames, using empty huge wooden cable barrels to walk along - now that I'm a parent, I can understand why my parents would always freak out when they saw me doing something that should only be done under a circus tent.

I really can't speak for the potential of someone and the negligence. I mean sometimes I'm desperate for just a few moments of peace. Just 5 minutes where I'm not having to read a book or tickle my daughter. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE playing with her, but sometimes you just need a break.

But that's in a controlled environment. The examples of a parent leaving their kid in the car to be strangled by the automatic window or something else. How is it that people think it's ok?

Point of example - the job I work at, we started installing these machines at the branches. They're testing machines that ask basic questions such as, "Do you think it's ok to show up at work high on weed?" Simple questions that someone could easily answer. It doesn't say "would you?" it says "Do you think it is ok". Thousands, and I mean thousands of people ended up having to find a new line of work, because they really truly do believe that it is ok to do things that most people know. Basic right from wrong questions.

Are the people causing harm to their kids out of neglect soundly thoughtful people who know right from wrong, or do they think it's not a big deal to leave their kids in the car while they're at a long doctor's appointment or when going christmas shopping?

Well, you didn't say that in your last post. I was responding to this:



and pointing out that kids get up to all sorts of things while their parents are asleep or preoccupied. My parents had no clue I knew how to pick locks, for example, or that I understood that I could climb on a chair and unlatch the door.

Sure, the stuff about leaving a kid unattended in a car should be a no-brainer; unfortunately that's about how much a lot of people have to work with.

What? I can't talk and sling hot wings at the same time?

That reminds me, where is my kid...


OH SHIIIII~!
