    Yes they are. And if you think you’re better than these people and couldn’t forget and have a slip up you are wrong.

        They’re actually right. In most cases people simply forget to put a window down or sometimes that the kid is in the car.

        There’s also no need for ableist language like that.

          Why leave the kid in the car at all? My kids go inside with me if the wife isn’t there wanting to stay in the car. Doesn’t matter if I’m going in a store for 2 minutes.

          The crazy thing is that the news here in the Midwest tells people each year to put something important, like their phone, in the car seat to remember the kid.

            It’s usually they haven’t slept for days and the kid is asleep in the back.

            I saw one where they drove past their kids school and went to work.

            No one plans to do this. It’s not hugely common but it does happen.

            I was left at the supermarket once. These things happen. But sometimes the consequences are just much bigger.
