Baby baking season is here

lookout123 · 07-13-2005, 11:33 AM

Well, Baby Baking season 2005 is upon us here in the beautiful valley of the sun. It happens every single year. Never mind the fact that we are constantly bombarded by PSA's and newstories reminding us that it is not a good thing to leave children unattended in swimming pools or parked cars.

Yesterday a 26 year old woman "forgot" that her niece was in the back seat of her parked car for 5 hours.

WTF!?!?! seriously, how do you forget that a child is still in the car? i might be able to understand a minute or two. "oh, hey i grabbed the groceries but where is the kid?" *runs to the car* but when it comes to "hey i need another bag of cheetos, i better get off my ass and go to the kitchen. come to think of it, i haven't changed a diaper yet today." *runs to the car* BS! BS! BS! BS! the only positive here is that these poor children do not have to suffer through long lives trapped with criminally irresponsible mother******s who shouldn't be trusted to take another breath without someone reminding them.

On the news last night, they ran the normal baby baking story with the heartbroken family asking that no charges be brought against the childkiller, because she has "suffered enough". bullf***ingsh*t! lock her in a car and let her go. she is a murderer whether she intended to or not. she is criminally stupid and should not be allowed back into this society even for a minute.
they had a blurb from a family friend imploring the viewers to not let this happen in their family. she went on to say babies need to be protected, don't leave them in the car. if you necessary - "put something important in the backseat with the baby so you won't forget. like your cell phone." WTF?!?!?! put something "important" like a cell phone by the baby so you won't forget? cell phone = important. baby = ? DIE! save the oxygen for someone who can use it better and just die already.

I saw another one the other day somewhere in Texas, and the article went on and on about how people don't realize that infants are so much more susceptible to high temperatures and in 100-degree weather a car can become fatal in just five minutes, this is such a "hidden killer"... oh, except THIS child in question was left in the car for two and a half hours. But she's not irresponsible, it could have happened to anyone, only five minutes!

Sounds to me as though vehicles sold in Arizona need to have seasoning embedded in the upholstery so all that slow cooking doesn't go to waste.

and Bruce said I was sick...

See you and raise you ...

On the upside, mommy's out of the gene pool now. Hopefully she has had her tubes tied.

Edit to add speculation: I wonder how many of the baked babies were intentionally left in the carseats in the sun? "At last I'm rid of the little bastard that's ruined my figure and ability to date." The distraught moms are always treated as objects of sympathy rather than with the contempt that they deserve.

I'm sure the next important baby supply is going to be some kind of a monitor that goes off if there is still weight in the carseat when the engine is shut off. Of course people still leave their lights and turn signals on despite such innovations ...

07-13-2005, 01:33 PM

The article said the child had an internal temperature of 107 degrees when found. Unbelievable! I like the "leave something important" in the back with the child, too.

"Let's see, where did I leave my bong? Oh, yeah! It's back there with junior!"

I can't stand to leave an animal in a parked car in the summer, never mind a child. If I am traveling with a pet, you can bet I'll make the effort to find a shady spot, roll down all the windows a little, and put up the sunshade. Even at THAT, I rush through my errands with the doggie's or kitty's presence in my car nagging at the back of my mind.

And I have MEMORY PROBLEMS, for Christsake!

Forgetting about a CHILD?

A million years in prison with no parole!

Did you guys read about the guy in Cali who used his 15 month-old daughter as a human shield and then ran out at police and shot at them? Well, they shot back--and killed both the man and the toddler. Family of man and toddler are OUTRAGED that the police shot the kid! Outraged at the police??? It's not like they were trying to hit the kid--and WHO put that kid in danger? Oh, yeah, her loving dad. He only used her as a human shield once. Assholes.

Troubleshooter · 07-13-2005, 01:41 PM

I'd heard about that, can you link some articles?

Trilby · 07-13-2005, 01:42 PM

I'll try to find some...

Queen of the Ryche · 07-13-2005, 01:44 PM

Further info today said the father was "distraught" and had mentioned the possibiliy of killing his stepdaughter (who escaped) and the baby previously........of course good ol' Cali liberal journalists are blaming the whole thing on the cops.

SteveDallas · 07-13-2005, 03:03 PM

You know what, I left my daughter in the car by accident once. She was about 3 weeks old and I was picking up a NY Times at Wawa. I made it almost to the door of the store before I realized I had forgotten something . . . .

Now is a different story of course with my kids old enough to go over to friends' houses and whatnot. But when they were toddlers & younger our entire freakin' lives revolved around getting those kids fed, put to bed, etc. The disconnect that would have allowed us to casually read or watch TV or something and not notice that all of a sudden there wasn't a baby doing his best to climb up a bookshelf would be unimaginable.

Clodfobble · 07-13-2005, 03:26 PM

I have never forgotten my stepkids in the car (half the time I even find myself walking over to the passenger door to get them out when they're not even with me...)

But I often forget while I'm driving that they're with me, all the time. I talk to myself in the car pretty compulsively--at other drivers, and people I'm going to see later in the day, and people I just saw who I wanted to say a particular thing to but didn't--and it always scares the crap out of me when the three-year-old pipes up with, "Who are you talking to?"

Just today, in fact, I yelled "GO!" at the top of my lungs at this moron in front of me who was sitting at a green light. I felt so horrible when I heard this little voice in the back say, "I AM going..."

LabRat · 07-13-2005, 03:59 PM

OMG I totally laughed out loud at your post Clod, I do this ALL the time, and my now 2.5 yr old replies to me too. Or worse, repeats what I say...Beats ME where she learned that language...

lookout123 · 07-13-2005, 04:02 PM

at a recent event for my firm, they went around and videotaped kids as they asked questions. i turned a little red when my son answered the "what does daddy say most when he gets home at night?" of course, my son replied "DAMMIT DAX!" dax would be the boxer puppy.
