do you even have kids or are you just arguing for the sake of arguing?
I understand what you think is happening. It's what everyone who doesn't understand how memory works thinks is happening.
It's not what's happening, because memory doesn't work the way you think.
There is no prioritization of memory. Repeat that until you believe it. Science. Research. Understanding. Those are the gaps between what you're saying is happening and what is actually happening.
And that's not what negligence means. Negligence is when you do or don't do something that a reasonable person would do or not do.
But a reasonable person is capable of this behavior, through circumstance and nothing else. So it's not negligent.
how often do you forget them in the car? im betting never
Unfortunately, failure to understand the 'risks' of leaving kids in cars has resulted in many parents taking their kids in to stores, and walking in parking lots is FAR more likely to result in the death of a child over 3 than heat exhaustion.You guys are making me not wanna go on road trips.
Here's the other thing about memory - if you don't associate a behavior with "something I'm capable of" you probably won't remember if you do it. You'll rationalize it in the moment and dissociate yourself from the memory.
It's one of the reasons we think everyone is a shittier driver than we are.
I did walk about 10 steps from the car once when I stopped at the electronics store with my 5 yo in the back. She was never in danger or at risk, even if I'd gone in to the store. But if I wasn't so woke about memory, I'd probably wouldn't remember that, just because that's how it works.
you make leaving your kid in the car sound like leaving your back pack in the car. you dont die in 2 mins . a parent has to be a total retard to be in a store or chillin in the house and not notice that their kids arent there
its awfully quiet in here oh shit i left little timmy in the car again

I understand exactly how it works.
I wouldn't allow my brain to set those connections up in the first place, to the point those circumstances could allign.
I would forget everything else first and be late for work, or what ever other shit most of these idiots say they were thinking about.
Want to know how I know for a fact, because I have done it.
It is exactly what negligence means, a lack of due care.
Whether its blatent or if it is as simple as planning your day and allowing your childs care to be a simple box you tick in your thought process and a blank your brain can fill in.
It is still negligence.

I would crack the window at least one inch for you dog, in my haste to get into Walmart to make a very serious decision on what guns to buy and then agree to wait for the background check to get clearedYou guys are making me not wanna go on road trips.
no idea what you're talking about. I have a great memory, but all memory is contextual. That's what is being discussed.
are you trying to make this personal for some reason?
it's not a cognitive choice that you get to make, because that's how memory works.
