Unfortunately it does happen....way too often.

Some people do it on purpose saying they were only going to be gone a minute!

I've never left one in a car, but I "almost" did once. Remembered it, when I got to the front door. My littlest was about a year old. 99 times out of 100, my wife would pick her up after work. One evening, I had to. She was asleep in a car seat, in the back seat of my truck. I came in from work, and headed in the house to change clothes, and start my afternoon on the farm. Scared me to death, when I realized what I had done. I'll admit, it was probably less than 30 seconds, but it made me see how easily somebody could do it.

You called it Sky....no hope.

I used to think the same thing, until I had children. I've never done it, but sure had the fear that it could somehow happen, especially on a day when your routine changes, and you're zoning out thinking about 101 other things in a time and place when you don't normally have the baby with you. Sure, there are a lot of deadbeats and idiots who do it while stopping in at a bar or something, but it does also sometimes happen to decent people as well.
