[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm sure I should be outraged, but I agree with the poster who says that on a scale of 1-10 this is a 5.5. Frankly I'd give it more of a 4 bc while things had the potential of going wrong, they didn't. No one was injured, the car wasn't stolen -- all's well that ends well IMO. Their kids -- their choice, why are people SO outraged about their kids' well being if the parents themselves aren't? [b]Isn't the defense the same as the Home Depot guy from this summer -- I thought we dropped the kids off on the way but I guess we didn't; I guess we didn't hear them bc they fell asleep and were quiet?[/b] Only this is less egregious because it isn't 100 degrees out. Yes I realize cold is uncomfortable, but a kid can be in a car that starts at 70 and drops to 30 for 2-3 hours and be fine -- I mean you can't tell me these kids don't play outside in the winter? I think CPS and the justice system has bigger fish to fry than this honestly.[/quote] Except that in this case, they didn't forget to drop the kids off at the daycare -- they went to a wine tasting with the kids in the backseat! The Home Depot case was arguably an accident -- this was purposefully negligent. Other than outright physical abuse, I can't think of a case of negligence that would be worse than this.[/quote]
