So, we haven't even hit the official start of summer yet, and a 5 month old has already been killed by being left in a hot car for FIVE hours.
I get that parents get busy and forget things...but your baby? And for five hours, at that? When I'm not with my kids, I'm thinking about them constantly. How is it that in 5 hours, you don't think of your baby and remember "Oh shit! I left my baby in the backseat!". And at that, how is it that no one noticed a baby in a carseat in a closed car? Not once in 5 hours...
These hot Georgia summers mixed with stupid parents tend to produce probably a dozen of these deaths a year. It's awful. I wonder if harsher punishments for these parents would remind them to check their backseats before they get out of the car....
