My wife had to bring our two year old to school and the baby was going in later because he had a doctor's visit. She brought them both, brought both inside, dropped our oldest off, put the little one back in the car, and drove home.

She didn't leave our little one in the car (she remembered before she even pulled into the driceway), but she freaked out because she had forgotten for a second he was there and came home instead of the doctor because of the routine.

That's probably as close as either of us will ever come, and I can't imagine forgetting for an extended period of time, but the mind is powerful.

Come on man. 2 threads about dead 2 year olds in the same day? My girl is turning 2 in 2 months. I kept looking at her and hugging her tight the day I heard about the little girl in Beauregard Parish. I couldn't imagine. I'd literally go insane, probably kill myself.

I posted right after I read your OP. First thing I thought of and I believe that was the first story I ever read on No Sleep.

When my son was very young, less than 6 months old I was driving him home from daycare. I got an important call and had 100% of my focus on that. I pulled up to the house, got out of the car and walked inside still on that phone call. Conversation ended within a minute or two of me walking in. It was very Erie bc I knew something wasn't right. Then it hit me and I ran out as fast as I could. I'm talking maybe three minutes total but my heart was racing. Child was fast asleep and totally fine but I still think about that every time I read one of these stories. I always think what would have happened if that turned out to be a lot longer conversation. I'd like to think that it eventually would have kicked in but I can't say for sure. That's the one and only time I ever did anything like that and I was not used to having a baby and we were still in the phase where he slept every time we took a car ride so it was almost like not having a kid in the car. Not making excuses and I'm glad nothing worse happened than me getting scared shitless, but sometimes mistakes are made. Nobody knows what was going on in her world that day except her and she'll have to live with it forever. Sad all around.

I think leaving a kid in a car to bake to death should be a crime. Accident or not. Sorry.

Yes, we all make mistakes. We don't all make mistakes like that. What she did was just horrible, irresponsible parenting.

That's a lot easier to forget. I've forgotten my phone in the car.

There's a judge in Hot Springs Arkansas accused of the same thing. This is part of what he told police;

"According to the affidavit, Naramore told police on July 24, 2015, he and his 18-month-old son Thomas were in the car and said their morning prayers. Naramore stopped at McDonald's for breakfast, which was out of the ordinary because he usually ate breakfast at home. He said he also had a court case he was worried about. He then proceeded to work."

Basically our morning commutes are on autopilot. Same route, same routines, day after day.

I understand how this can happen and it's one of the saddest mistakes anyone can ever make. The parents who do this don't want to kill their children. They made a mistake and this mistake is forever.

I was paranoid about this when my son was a baby. My wife and I would call each other every morning as soon as we got into work to make sure every thing was ok.

Never had a close call but again, I can see how it occasionally happens. We just have too much shite going on in our lives and in our cars. Also, rear-facing car seats, while safer in accidents, do increase the likelihood that a distracted parent might overlook their child still in the car.

So sad.

This needs to be invented: a car seat with a sensor. The car seat senses when a child is in the car seat. There is an accompany sensor on the parent's key chain. When the sensor on the key ring is more than "X" number of feet away from the sensor on the child seat it beeps LOUDLY and vibrates as a reminder that the child is in the car. Seriously, does this not already exist???

I was literally within 100 yards of the child in the story all day at my place of business when this happened. Another piece that adds to the "autopilot" scenario was the fact that the day care was right down the street from the mothers work. She drove right passed probably on the phone or with work on her mind and the child asleep.

I wondered what was going on as I drove past all the cars and police cruisers that afternoon. Been sick since I first saw the story.

Total accident.

I got wrapped up in the case of the POS from Georgia (bama fan) who murdered his son that way. Has he been convicted yet?


I googled it and last thing I could find was three weeks ago when they were doing jury selection.
