Stupid parents should be prosecuted

[mistyisjafo]

I can't imagine how they forgot or why. But after 3 years of working in the D-land parking lot I'm not surprised by some people's lack of thinking. People would constantly leave a pet in their car usually with no food, water and some times not even a window crack. Back in the days when you parked in the old lot there wasn't even shade so what people were thinking when they'd lock up their pooch or kitty, I'll never know.

I know some people leave their kid in the car to "go in for just a second" but from what I learned in that parking lot is that in about 5 minutes with the window opened a "crack" the car can go from a cool 75 degrees to a sweltering 95 or more (depending on weather). Basically it becomes an oven.

So NEVER leave any pet or child in the car unless attended by an adult, even for a minute.
