A Devastating PSA Reenactment of child left in car

MrsSweetieBear · ‎03-10-2010

This video is a Public Service Announcement made last year that shows what happens after just 15 minutes to a child left in a locked locked car. This young mother purposely left her baby in the car so she could do a little shopping.

I didn't see this last year. It was recently posted on my facebook feed. I watched with dread and compassion, but not for the stupid mother or the first witness who did nothing. It made cry.

I couldn't watch it. I would cry.

Wrong is still wrong just because you benefited from it.

Me either, just hearing what the detective said about how poor Cooper was found sitting in that car seat, made me sick!!!

I knew it was a only a reenactment. But still I'm surprised at myself that I did. I was hoping for a rescue and for the mom to come back in time.

I think it should be mandatory viewing for all new parents. Maybe at the time of car seat purchase?

I haven't been able to watch anything about this real case though.

Isn't it extremely rare that people leave children in hot cars? Mandatory viewing IMO is not necessary as even the dumbest of dumb parents just don't do this.

Don't start now. I wish I didn't.
