They weren't new parents. According to the article, they already had adopted 2 kids and had other foster kids. Oh wow, I didn't know that. |

I saw that on the Today show this morning. It is so sad. I don't understand why people still leave their kids in the car. I think they said this poor little baby was in there for 2 hours. Terrible.

I think I saw in an article that this baby was only placed with them two days ago. It's a tragedy for sure, but it's not completely unfathomable that they forgot about her. So sad.

This is horrible. They had already gotten home and forgot the baby? There is usually a ton of reminders around the house to alert you that you have a baby!
I read somewhere that you should put your shoe in the back seat near the baby. You would definitely not leave without your shoe.

That is 24 babies dead in less then 2 months. if you think about it. That means every 2.3 days a baby has died in a hot car. what are these people thinking......
this last one that died you would think foster parents would be more careful with the children they have in there care.
This saddens me. I can not for the life of me figure out how you forget your baby is in the car. I remember hearing about a baby dying i the backseat of a car years ago and the police spokes person said if you have a small child in a back seat put your purse or you briefcase in the back seat with them so when you get out you have to get into the back seat to get the purse or briefcase. If you are a man and don't use a brief case then set an alarm on your phone that goes off shortly after you pull into the parking lot where you plan on parking your car.

I really like the electronic signs I've seen while driving through Missouri. I'm not sure if they are just using them for that temporarily or if they always do it along 70.
As many stupid warnings that I see on items I th ink they need to start adding this warning everywhere. Put them in cars, buidlings, signs, keys, radio etc. Everywhere.
