[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh good grief.  My parents left me alone in the car all the time as a kid when I asked to stay and read. It was FINE.  Crime has only gone DOWN since then, not up.  And I wasn't defenseless - I could get out of the car and go into wherever my parents were.  My kids have stayed in the car numerous times also, with no problem. Nothing will happen in the store or restaurant to prevent me from just turning and walking out if I need to. It's fine.

Your parents probably didn’t bother to put a seatbelt on you and raised you on a diet of Mountain Dew and Lays given your IQ level. Do you do the same for your kids?[/quote]

Actually my parents were the “the car won’t turn on if everyone isn’t buckled “ types. I’ve never had Mountain Dew and we mostly only ate chips when we grilled. My IQ is fine. I’m capable of critical thinking and knowing what my kids are likely to do. [/quote]

NP here.  I was born in 1965 (yeah, wow) and was even put in a car seat until age 2.  Seatbelts at all times.  No soda.  (Not American).  How about that?  Oh, and they did leave me in the car.  Even in a stroller in front of the store from time-to-time.  In a very large city.  Hunh.  Not in the US though.  Crazy crime ridden place, according to them.  :lol: [/quote]
