Thread Name: BS: Children left behind in cars
Subject: RE: BS: Children left behind in cars
I saw a woman breastfeeding as she drove. She pulled up next to me at a red light and smiled. All I could think was that if the car behind her even tapped her at 20MPH, the baby's head would be crushed between her bulk and the steering wheel. Why not pull off the road to a safe place and breast feed?

My sister-in-law was working at a local church rummage sale when a woman came in upset that a newborn baby was locked in a car with the windows closed - 90+ degrees. They made an announcement over the speaker system but no one responded so they called the police. The woman then appeared and furiously told them to mind their own business. She had heard the announcement but went on shopping. The police took it from there. I don't know but suspect she was let go with a warning.
