Well, a good way to encourage your 26 y.o. single-parent offspring to get out of mom and dad's house is to give her a 2011 MB to drive around in.

However, credit where credit is due, she was trying to save a buck shopping in the Big H Shopping Center....no upscale shops there.

The child should be taken away and she needs to go to parenting classes. If I saw her on the street I would strangle her.

Isn't that where you park to go to the upscale shops?

EDIT: Nevermind. I was thinking of a different shopping center.

You have to take a test for a driver license, cop, notary, licensed electrician, work at Home Depot, but not to care for a child.

And the grandmother tried to justify it?? I don't care if its 15 seconds, one minute, five minutes, whatever-- you DO NOT leave your child in the car. And you especially don't leave the doors unlocked, and not on the hottest day of the year!! I hope social services takes this child away from her. God knows what else this mother must be doing when the cameras aren't around.

Why in the world was she at the big h shopping center to begin with? That seems like a far place to be from home.

Here in California recently , a man left his baby boy in the back of the car because he "forgot" that he had him there & the little boy died. He was arrested for involuntary manslaughter , but was given probation. As part of his sentence , he goes around and warns people about how quickly this can happen.

Some people say that it has to do with the fact that infant seats need to be in the back of the car now & that some people actually do not remember that they have their child with them.

When my son was small in the 70s , we did not have seatbelts so this problem never really came up, but I can not imagine that I would have forgotten him.

But I just don't get it. I mean, I don't have children, but I just don't get how somebody can forget their child in the back seat. Most parents are always worried sick about their children. How can they just leave them in the car and forget? I dunno....
