I was perusing the Deseret News this morning, and noticed this story:

Looks like the mom who left her infant in the car will get 18 months of probation and no jail time.
I am always interested to know what could've possibly gone through her mind when she was taking in groceries, or focusing on her MLM job (I believe that is what kind of job she had) to the point that she just completely forgot her child.
Maybe it is because I am a new parent...but I feel like I've got at least one ear listening for my daughter no matter what I am doing.
We also had a situation out here in Virginia last week where a guy forgot to take his son to daycare and left him in the car for 7 hours.
I just don't get it.
The comments after the article are interesting...particularly the "judge not" part. Anyways, interesting, and incredibly sad stuff.
