I remember once I went to see a movie and left my youngest daughter in the car (She was one at the time) but it was okay because I left the air-con on.
It's abuse and neglect if you didn't leave the radio on for her and the inside light too. I hope you weren't being irresponsible by forgetting those two things. It's imperative.

She was fine, she loved the air-con, that was enough for her, it's not as bad as one time I left her in the car and went upstairs to bed, half way through the night I remembered! Silly me!

Silly you indeed. Here's a slap on the wrist for that little oversight.

WTF is wrong with you people not seeing the real fault here. She should have not done any charity. There would have been no problem whatsoever.

You see? The lesson here is to not do charity.

 No good deed goes unpunished.

CHICAGO (AP) - Misdemeanor charges will be dropped against an Illinois woman who briefly left her 2-year-old daughter in the car to take her two older daughters to pour coins into a Salvation Army kettle.

Crestwood Police Chief Timothy Sulikowski (suhl-ih-KOW'-skee) says prosecutors told him that they'll ask a judge to dismiss child endangerment and obstructing a peace officer charges against Treffly Coyne later in the day Thursday.

Coyne was arrested Dec. 8 outside a store in the Chicago suburb of Crestwood. She says she was outside her car for just a few minutes and no more than 10 yards away.

Coyne says her younger daughter was asleep and safe inside the locked car.
