15:59 here -- promise I'm not a troll. Just someone who is a bit jaded and trying to survive my own life without feeling like I should be my brother's keeper.[/quote]

Just so you realize that if your kids were ever in an emergency situation, what would you HOPE a random mom passing by would do? [/quote]

Yeah but that's just it -- I wouldn't view it as an emergency situation; no one is screaming, no one has fallen down etc. I'd walk by thinking -- 2 kids in the car, interesting -- I guess mom/dad just ran in to pick up the dry cleaning and didn't want to unstrap 2 kids. It wouldn't even occur to me that the kids had been there for more than a minute or that their parent wasn't just inside a store looking at the car through the window as they paid for their goods. So I wouldn't consider it my business. Now if I walked back and an hr later and saw them still there, maybe I'd think something was up -- but I'm not sure that I'd be motivated enough to get involved; I'd hope I'd call 911 and go on my way.[/quote]
