[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can someone please explain to me how he child is any more at risk being left in the car for 2 minutes than being driven around in the first place!?!

Frankly, as a public transit user, I have no idea how moms convince them selves it's ok to drive their kids around daily in the first place. Getting rear ended or some other accident is definitely the real risk when it comes to putting your kid in a car. And don't get me started on moms speeding and running lights (which OP may very well do all the time for all we know!)

I mean sure, people leave their babies in the car while they go get high and forget about the baby, but that's not what's going on here. [/quote]

Yep. Total point. Kid is at more risk on the beltway being exposed to the off gassing from your foam carseat  than the two minutes the car is parked and stationary.

I once saw a car double parked, hazard lights on, with a sleeping baby in the back seat. Know what I did? I stood there for the three minutes it took for the mother to come running downstairs and get in her car. Did I say anhthing? No. I just watched becuase god forbid, in a similar emergency, I would expect some other mother to do the same. They are all our kids. We are all in this together.

Except OP. She can take her bootstraps and use them to tie her children to her back.[/quote]
