In hunting it is generally advised to unload the gun even when you jump across a stream, climb over a fence, etc. And then other people carry loaded guns in their everyday tasks?

Because many people whom require carrying a gun to feel safe, tend to fantasize that they will end up in some Westren shoot out or Rambo fight scene where that extra second required to chamber a round will make all the diffrence in the world. These people are of course irresponsible and shouldn't be carrying a gun in the first place.
There is also the chance that she was carrying a revolver of some sort so only the safety had to be turned off and trigger pulled. Either way she was obviously not responsible enough to carry a gun as she either let the toddler fiddle around in her purse with a loaded gun or she left her purse with the child out of sight long enough for the kid to get it.
