Time when you can't forgive yourself

That's why I put my kids in the car seats, as they sit higher I can see them every time I glance back at my rear view mirror. OR I buckle the car seat in front. Why parents forgot because they just let the kids sit without car seats, kids tend to fall asleep very fast and since no car seat the kids sure lay down. Then some dumb parents just forgot about them because can't notice any sound or the sight of the car seat....this is just my opinion

Don't put your small kid/baby in the front even though it's fasten with a seat belt using a kid's car seat, cause it's more dangerous in case of accidents. In some advanced countries (for example Canada), it's illegal to put kids up to a certain age at the front.

thats the worst nightmare imaginable especially to any parents out there...
i think i had enough internet for the day after reading this news.

in the mean time, i was curious, this is basically a case of involuntary manslaughter right?

My heart really ache. For the baby as well as for the mother. The guilt she is experiencing now...

Like what 6uest said, try not to put in the front seat. Right now she's still facing backwards right? If yes make sure you don't have a front airbag. That'll be bad too in an accident. Anyway, bottomline, put in the back unless she can sit on her own in a booster seat instead of a car seat.

Yup, it is because the young baby not strong enough for the air bag if/when deploy....

She's still facing the back. I can turn off and on my front air bag. She's sat at the back if me and my wife drive the same car if I fetch her alone then she's at the front because if put at back can't see her.

no matter how much stress or pressure you're in, it's no excuse to forget your child. Especially more so if he/she is a young toddler.

Yeah, I still don't get it how can she leave without realizing it. I will never know...

No, the baby seat can't be leaned against the airbag deployer.

stupid car, it's not leaning against the air bag. My air bag is on top of the dash instead of facing the passenger. I also pull my front seat to the most rear setting as far as possible from the dash.
