NOT newsworthy sure...but it hurts all the same...you cannot imagine how me and mine are feeling right now nor can you imagine how this guy must feel doing this..but don't blow something like this off because it may not be 'news' to you but what this says is for parents to be more vigilant...don't put yourself in a position to suffer like he is suffering so that way you won't become the next 'not newsworthy person' in the newspapers

I hope he didn't mean it's not newsworthy because it happens all the time.
I remember the woman who was drunk and left her child in the back of her car, and the man who left a toddler in the car while he was gambling in a casino. The worst was the couple who brought the child home from his baptism - mom thought dad had brought him in, dad though mom had - baby died. That one broke my heart even more than the usual. I'm glad they are covered in the news because it seems like such a common sense thing - and yet, it keeps happening, so obviously there is a disconnect somewhere. I wonder if you could invent an alarm that is sensitive to the weight of a baby in the seat - attach it to your key ring and if you get out of the car without the baby it goes off? Of course, the vast majority of parents who do this would never buy it.
