  1. Why is this still happening?

  2. I blame the person who approved their car loan

  3. Why Americans leave their kids in the car? Seriously?

  4. Horrible if you can't remember if your kid is with you

  5. You dont forget your phone but your forget your child??

  6. idk how you would forget your child
    A TIP:
    1.Just put your phone with your child you are not going to TEXT and driving anyway.
    or Wallet.
    2. Install baby rearview mirror

    if it works, you pay me ok?

  7. People like the Turpins.

  8. I one time forgot my son in the car, when he was an infant. My neighbors kids had let themselves in ( pretty normal thing ) and I got distracted. It took me about 5 minutes to realize something was wrong because I wasn't getting yelled at. I freaked out and cried when I realized it, he was just sitting in the car like nothing was going on. Luckily it was a cool day and the inside of the car was cool as well. But 14 hours? These parents didn't want or need to be parents, and that child suffered for their poor decisions.

  9. RepubliKKKans don't care once the child is born.

  10. I have children, I cannot imagine how you could forget having a child in the car with you.

  11. Sure, you see an unattended kid in a hot car and you break the window to save the kid, the first thing the parents will do is sue you for the cost of the window or try to fight you for breaking the window.

  12. I'm not buying this at all. People don't forget about their babies like this. People forget cell phones, wallets, other items but babies no way. These parents never cared in the first place.

  13. It is beyond my understand how a parent can "forget" a baby, child in a car. My first baby then the second were constantly on my mind wherever we went by car or on foot. There is no excuse for leaving a child in a car.

  14. Florida man strikes again.

  15. They are doing it on purpose. I don't care what nobody say.

  16. Well at least she won’t have to grow up knowing she has stupid parents. Maybe DeSantis can blame it on Disney some how. The reason the world calls the state FLORIDUH! Florida needs its own news outlet for all the stupid crap that happens there. The place where common sense and logic go to die.

  17. Typical suspects! 🙄

  18. Does the story say if the parents decided the child was a burden?

  19. if you dont want your kids, either dont have them or give them up, lord please

  20. charge them for manslaughter

  21. Two people forgot their kid for legit half a day? Yeah that wasn’t No accident idc.

  22. I do not believe that it's easy to forget a child in a car. Especially for 14 hours!!

  23. Sorry it's not losing track of a CHILD it IS HELLISH MURDER no FORGIVENES that's IT

  24. This is just living proof that not every human being deserves to be a parent. Having kids should be a privilege, not a right, so that the future generations are raised into good moral respectful human beings by devoting loving caring parents

  25. And that is why modern cars now warn you to check the rear seats when you turn off the car and open the door

  26. Never EVER leave a kid in a car. I mean come on? 14 HOURS?! Imagine it was 15 or even 24 HOURS! It’s not a Bottle or any non living thing. It’s May.
