Should “Child safety monitors” be utilized in parking lots?
Question by Elizabeth: Should “Child safety monitors” be utilized in parking lots?
What if there was a way to detect if a baby was left in a parked car within the first 3 minutes? Whether it be through cameras or actual people monitoring the cars.Do you think this would stop the senseless deaths of infants each year?
linda T: that’s sadly very true…

I don’t think technology is the answer here. I read a good suggestion somewhere, which was to put one of the kid’s toys or articles of clothing on the passenger seat next to you / on top of your purse or bag.

Probably not. There are way too many irresponsible mothers out there who care only for themselves and the baby is thrown into the back burner of their minds. Not even jail time and the death sentence deters some folks from murder, drug dealing, child abuse….so I don’t see this working. Good idea though…but sadly, as long as there are good people, there will be bad people to fight the positive influences.
If I were to suggest anything, it would be an ‘alarm’ type of plug that’s activated by clicking the safety harness in place on the infant’s carseat, with a tag on the parent’s keychain, activated by the car ignition. If the alarm isn’t deactivated within 3 minutes of the car shutting off, the tag will vibrate, chirp, scream (whatever).
But then, there’d be parents too damn lazy to use it anyway.
