May this serve as a warning.

So I just saw a video today about leaving your kid inside the car...in a hot day while parents make a quick stop at the store. They tell their kid who is 2 years old or less to wait in the car while they make a quick stop. Well I just want to say that video made me very sad. It made me frustrated as well because I discovered that many children have been dying because of this. I remember seeing this on the news, a little boy died because he was in the car and it was very hot that day, he couldn't handle it and so you already know what happened next. When I'm upset about something I try to see the situation from all perspectives... including the moms who left their children behind in the car. Why might they have done it? Was it an emergency? Could there have been another way..rather than leaving your kid in the car while you go to the store where theirs air- conditioning. When the kids die...surely the mothers must feel terrible, they realize they made the biggest mistake of their lives, they might even feel suicidal who knows! When people hear of this happening they tend to blame the mom....It makes sense to blame her but you dont know what happened exactly...you dont know how she must be feeling or thinking. So instead of making the situation worse find a solution. try to see it from all perspectives. Lessons can be learned from all types of situations including this one. MAY THIS SERVE AS A WARNING: DO NOT LEAVE YOUR CHILDREN IN A LOCKED CAR WHEN ITS 90 DEGREES. AT 104 DEGRESS INTERNAL ORGANS START TO SHUT DOWN, KIDNEYS START TO FAIL...WHEN IT GETS HOTTER THAN THAT CHILDREN DIE. . IF YOU ARE UNSURE JUST DON'T LEAVE THEM ALONE AND TAKE THEM WITH YOU. IF SOMEONE DOES THIS AND I SEE A CHILD IN A CAR CRYING, WHEN ITS HOT OUT IM GOING TO BREAK THAT WINDOW TO TAKE THEM OUT...IM GOING TO CALL THE POLICE. IM GOING TO DO SOMETHING. SO YOU BETTER LEARN FROM THESE EXPERIENCES.

  1. I totally agree with you! It's true at first when I read this I thought they are horrible people! Why would they do that? and all those thoughts but you're right this should serve as a lesson to all those people who aren't ready to be parents! (Wow. I learned something new today. I didn't know aLloyd that stuff happened at 104 degrees.)
