Mum leaves baby alone in car while she hit the Boxing Day sales

http://www.heraldsun.com.au/news/law-order/mum-leaves-baby-alone-in-car-while-she-hit-the-boxing-day...

A DEADBEAT mum left her baby alone in a car while she shopped for bargains at the Boxing Day sales.

Police said they expect to charge the 27-year-old woman with leaving a child unattended after leaving the 17-month-old boy alone for an hour and a half.

Officers said they were "left aghast" by the incident at Westfield Doncaster shopping complex.

I wonder how she justified that?

Freaks me out.

what?

I had cause recently to be angry about L plate drivers who don't follow that rule..................one ran into my daughter's car in a school car park........... she thought nothing of it and drove off without waiting for police. She actually allowed my daughter to take a pic of her learner's permit........

it's amazing what some people will forget whilst in pursuit of a "bargain".

Some people might think they got a bargain by waiting until their feet were severely crippled by bad shoes, all in order to save $50 or so when buying new ones.

I already have several pairs of good orthotics and shoes that fit them........... they don't come on sale very often in the style I prefer. Besides, it's not caused by bad shoes...........

We posted almost the same thing at almost the same time. I found it freaky. My apologies, will try and refrain from feeling freaky in the future. 🙂

as opposed to willfully leaving a helpless child in a hot car where it no doubt suffered and would have suffered more had it not been found by strangers who luckily weren't the type to kidnap and harm children?

That is bad.

I think people who DO take their babies with them to Boxing Day sales are careless as well. I saw a few today.

Why in the first place take the baby to the B/day sales, if you are not going to take baby into shops with you?

This woman, being Xmas was maybe a bit *out of it* so to speak.

She has done 3 things wrong..........taken the baby, left the baby in the car unattened and driven the car with no supervision on a L Plate, she doesnt deserve to be the mother of that child.

Lucky for the baby, that a passer by saw him in the car on his own, this could have had a different outcome, altogether.
