It’s pure negligence, there’s is no way to explain this away.
@J No, not to anyone……
No one is excusing this. She’s explaining what cognitive overload is. If you think Diana Smith (the mother) did it on purpose, go ask her. She lives in Hastings County.
@Rupert Periwinkle stop talking. It’s called common sense. It’s no harder than that.
Felt very sad for both mom and child. This story had me in tears. She needs lots of love and positive support right now.
Shut up and stop making excuses. This was pure negligence.
This is a scientific description of what happened. If science hurts you you shouldn’t be allowed to participate in adult conversation
@M SC You’re clearly not familiar with psychiatry/psychology……
@M SC forgetting a child in a hot car all day while you go to work is science.
I’m single with 4 kids, work daycares blah blah it’s always busy. I’ve never forgotten a kid in the car before. This is pure negligence, poor kid deserved better. Stop making excuses
@M SC no you fool, this is called common sense. No amount of jibber jabber excuses this.
There no excuse . ……… …..
Are you kidding me?
Demonic justification
What!?
It’s no different than saying I heard it’s not pedophiles problem for attacking kids
Don’t tell me how to to interpret this horrid negligence.
Less than 24 hours and this woman is the victim. For the love of sanity.
There can’t be multiple victims in the complicated story that is life?
Multi-tasking is overrated. It’s like doing multiple things half-assed. There’s no mindfulness in that. Do one thing at at time!
No one is excusing what happened. She’s explaining what *cognitive overload* is. If you think Diana Smith (the mother) did it on purpose, go ask her. She lives in Hastings County, Bancroft. We all know what school she teaches at, as it’s all over the news.
