[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think they really thought their kids were safe and that what they were doing was OK. They were watching them, right? Never mind those frigid temps or the cold noses or freezing little fingers and toes. I want to cry.

I wonder [b]how long the daughter was sobbing hysterically[/b] - if she'd been doing that the whole time, part of the time, or just when a big crowd gathered around the car staring at her. Poor baby. [/quote]

Perhaps not long? Perhaps this is the reason the husband came out to the car?

But the police report said that the person who called police said he'd been watching the car for 10 minutes, and no one came out to the car during that time. But it did not say that the child was crying until the police approached the car. So perhaps the child just started crying, the father heard the crying on the phone, and rushed out to the car to deal with the kids.

None of it really matters since it's such an outrageously stupid thing to leave your two toddlers in the car on a winter day on a city street! I can't imagine what the parents were thinking?

But some parents really do see their kids as accessories, and a nuisance. And perhaps these parents really don't interact with their kids that much. They leave them to the nanny all week, so weekends are a PITA for them? It's possible.

I know a couple who adopted a baby, hired a nanny, then kept on with their weekends in the country, leaving the baby at home with the nanny!! It was truly appalling, but they really didn't want to change their comfy lifestyle for this little baby, who was basically an accessory to their very comfortable, wealthy life.  All their friends had babies, so they wanted one too! Ghastly. That poor kid.

These people have a million dollar house. Can't they come up with the cash for a babysitter?

And what a stupid idea to "babysit" their kids with their cell phones! I still can't get over leaving one's children in a parked car on a city street! In the winter! They aren't stuffed animals.
