  3. The idea that people are always thinking rationally is a fallacy.

     

    She didn't think. She made a mistake. She should not have left the baby in the car.

     

    I do think that it was a mistake based on the practical impossibility of her being able to handle the dog and the baby and the two other children at the same time. She got the dog into the vet's office and was probably 'engaged' by the receptionist who told her to sit down and keep her dog and the vet will be with her in a minute.

     

    In her circumstance, she would have had to bring the dog into the vet, TELL the receptionist to keep an eye on the two young kids and dog and immediately go get the baby.... and of course if she had been so 'assertive' she might have run into an equally assertive 'receptionist' who could have slapped her down and told her to sit with her dog and shut up.

     

    I really think in a lot of cases folks need a little help but society discourages it and unless the good Samaritan is there to lend a hand, mistakes of this kind are made. I do think that a kinder and gentler society that encourages more cooperation and less stoic independence would probably eliminate many of these kinds of 'lapses.'

    Maybe the baby was asleep when she got to the vet?

     

    Maybe the dog was so sick it could not walk.

     

    She will pay for this mistake the rest of her life. I am thankful the child is okay
