wth goes through some parents mind?

Twice in the last week I have gone up to the gas station and parked. I look over and the first time I see an unlocked running car with a little boy about the age of 2 in the backseat. No one else in the car. Then today when I am there I look over and there is a little boy probably 4 months old in his infant carrier alone in the car with the car completely unlocked. Now I know we live in a small town and all, but NEVER have I heven considered leaving the girls alone in the car. Ever. I just do NOT get what goes through some parents head.

Re: wth goes through some parents mind?

  • Complete idiots!!!  I hate seeing stupid people like that.  I would NEVER do that.  If I have to run in somewhere quick, I hate doing this, but I take the lightweight stroller and wheel Davis in.  He is too heavy to carry and still doesn't listen well enough to be trusted just hold my hand, hell he won't even hold my hand, he just wants to run.  But as inconvenient as the stroller can be I still do it because I'd rather spend an extra 2 minutes dealing with that then having something awful happen.

    Kind of off the subject, but still about stupid people, the other day I saw a car with a 4 kids in the backseat, all still at the age that requires them to be in either a forward facing seat or a booster.  They were probably between the ages of 4 and 7.  Anyways, not one was in a car seat or a booster, nor did any of them have seatbelts on and they were sitting on each others laps.

  • People just don't think. There is a family at the center who has 3 kids small enough to be in car seats and there is NO carseats in their car, even for the baby. The mom is a very young mom, but still I don't care if you live 5 mins down the road, you never know what can happen. We called the cops and gave them the license plate number so they can stop the. We also have a parent arrive drunk the other day and drive off with his daughter. The cops were called right away on him too. I just don't understand what goes through some parents heads. I use to freak out if my cousin didn't leave me a car seat for Emma, even if we were only going 5 mins down the road, I just don't trust other people.

  • People are freakin idiots. I won't get gas if the girls are with me and I only have cash, and when I do get gas with my card I still lock the doors when I get out even though I'm not actually walking away from my car. I hate seeing stuff like that.
