It drives me crazy to be at the park, and see moms pull up, let their kids out, and then sit their lazy assess in the car.

I know it's hot, I know you might not want to get out, but you can't protect your child from the inside of your car.

Someone could snatch your child and run. You won't be able to catch up. Your child could wander off and get hurt. Hell, they could fall and bust their head open and it's gonna take you at least a minute longer to get to them.

It's the park. Get out and enjoy some time with your children while they're still little.

children being actually watched even from a car are rarely the prey of predators. its the children with parents at the park who are too busy standing gossiping and not paying attention to their child wandering slightly out of site that make a pedo get weak in the knees, sick right?

are we talking toddlers here or 5 and up? 5 and up do not need mommy standing within 2 feet practically holding their hands at the park.

they are in the car... they have a catch up advantage... it smarter for them to be in the car watching...

J/K... LMAO

I totally agree, they need to be out watching their kid.

Teaching your child independence while being near is lazy parenting.

Things I learned on CM today.

People do that? Growing up watching lifetime movies with my mother I knew to never let my little sister out of my sight if my mom asked me to keep an eye on her while she was doing something and I never let my son out of my sight while he's crawling around being mobile and whatnot lol
