    :heartsmil When you find people who not only tolerate your quirks but celebrate them with glad cries of "Me too!" be sure to cherish them. Because these weirdos are your true family.

    Urgh. *shudders*

    OP, you don't deserve this flaming.

    My DD is nearly 4. She's never been a light sleeper, and the vast majority of the time I have moved her sleeping from the car to the sofa. A few times though (I don't recall why) I did leave her in the car with windows and sunroof open, and her bedroom monitor (which includes a thermometer readout on both child and parent bits) on batteries in the car with her on the driveway. I assessed the risk as so low as not to be significant.

    At 1.5 it's unlikely your child can come out of the car in the seat. My nieces are very light sleepers (aged 3 and 1.5) and they're routinely left in the car on their driveway asleep. Again, it's a calculated (insignificant) risk for them.

    The NSPCC would think differently! The only way the risk of this is insignificant is if the child was taken indoors!

    Ah, good old DRI.

    With respect, the OP's child is 18 months old, and not a baby.

    Are you really that ignorant? you have no time for an agency who's sole purpose is to safeguard children.

    Wow.

    I have never yet seen a car spontaneously set fire, while turned off

    Are you that idiotically stupid? Never become a risk assessor

    Thanks for that. I am obviously not as stupid or ignorant as you are. It was not my car. It was in a motorway services. Unoccupied. It was very quick.

    I'm sure there's an irony that a car caught fire last night and set fire to two houses .. and it was only a few streets from me.

    Anytime that you feel llke making an apology to me then...... no rush....

    My child is not, nor has ever been at risk.

    My husband and I are extremely well informed and do the very best for DD - and have done since before she was born. If the NSPCC have an issue with me leaving DD in the car for 20 minutes (as I say, I don't recall why) on my own driveway where I can see her, ventilated, in the shade, with a monitor allowing me to hear her while ignoring those who:
    • consistently smoke in cars/houses/around children
    • swear at/around them
    • feed them !!!! food
    • fail to provide a safe and stimulating environment
    • consider physical punishment appropriate
    • think Jo Frost is a parenting expert

    then yes, they can bite me.

    Oh believe you me they would bite you, and a whole lot worse, you would be seen as putting your child at risk of significant harm. Other agencies would be involved if you were to be reported and that is FACT!

    Wonder if you would be so flippant then?
