There is no excuse for leaving a kid in a hot car. This is just another example of why IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT ONE PARENT FOCUS ON THE KIDS WHILE THE OTHER PARENT WORKS. All it takes is 2 seconds and your kid is dead and there are many ways a kid can die such as around water, in parking lots, and by swallowing objects and choking. As it turns out all this cultural re-programming about all women needing to have a career and family is total bullshit. It does not work regardless of what you see portrayed on the idiot box. The career mothers I know have missed out on most of the special moments of a child's first few years and nannys and daycare workers have taken their place.
