denomis Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Ok so I'll point out that's its summer time (ish) down under and no one pointed out that s/he may dehydrate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassy Posted March 26, 2013 Author Share Posted March 26, 2013 No its not, not in this country. im not talking about this country, i said in the OP it was in new zealand, and according to the article it IS illegal there, to leave a child under 14 alone for an unreasonable time or in unreasonable conditions, so i think a newborn locked in a car is unreasonable, and if you dont then im sorry to say i think you're just as silly as she is ---------- Post added 26-03-2013 at 21:59 ---------- You might be advised, but its not illegal, neglect is. surely locking a newborn in a car is neglect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Cid Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 so i think a newborn locked in a car is unreasonable I do not think it should be illegal, dont you remember when people used to leave their babies outside of shops, in the pram? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Cid Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 no i never left my children home alone, untill they were old enough to do so, I am sure we all leave them on their own, in the next room, or upstairs; is leaving them in the car really that much different?

The child is not 'attended' 24/7, even with monitors. Occasionally they are left unattended. before you have a rant at me, I'm not saying I agree or disagree with what was said.

Apologies if I misunderstand. yes i agree but this is vastly different popping into another room for a few seconds when you can still hear the child if not see them than leaving them in a car for god knows how long to go shopping, it really isnt the same thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bassy thinks I meant left alone with a parent absent-I feel your take on this is more likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
