My friend left her baby in the car while she tended her horses. After a while she noticed smoke coming from the car as the radio she left playing for the baby had caught alight. Baby had a very lucky escape and she never did it again.

Flashback to 1974, when we had a Britax baby seat for No 2 son - who was 18 months old. He'd fallen asleep in the car and DH was unloading the things that we'd shopped for, and I was putting them away. DH turned away to talk to our neighbour who was in his garden. No 2 son woke up, undid the buckle on the carseat and climbed into the front, released the (sloppy) handbrake ...and the car rolled forward and crashed into the garage door!

OK - so I know that the car seats today are more "baby proof" - but it shows how quickly a situation can change.

Too many replies off topic to see if this has been picked up on, but driving round in a vehicle you know to have a defective braking system must be significantly more of a risk than leaving a sleeping child a car, - 1974 or otherwise. Not passing judgement on anyone - just an observation.

Baby wasn't harmed, it happened for less than an hour in total across a few occasions around 3 years ago. If they've nowt more serious to look at elsewhere I'd be amazed.

Having worked for a Child Protection department for years, I think I can safely say that leaving a sleeping child, for a short time, in appropriate temperatures within sight and earshot, on the drive, in a car, will not bring social workers or the NSPCC screaming up to the door......:whistle:

Frankly, they have more serious fish to fry.

Currently working in child protection, if this was reported I assure you it would be followed up on!

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.

Can i bite you? Your child is at risk for the twenty minutes theyre left in the car.

Apologies if this is the wrong forum. My boss, 65 years old, often falls asleep in the office after gorging on chocolate cake which we've spiked with Nytol. We usually leave him in his office and move his car around for fun, keeping our eyes on his window.

Is there some sort of wireless monitor where we can leave one hidden in his office and have the receiver with us, so we can take his car farther than ever before and hear when he wakes up? We need to ditch his car once he wakes up and get back to the office before he notices we've gone.

Preferably both units solar powered because batteries are too expensive.

I had a google and a look on amazon but all I could find were baby monitors for people who like to leave babies lying around.

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

I'm sorry. It happens.

I will still let my nearly 3 year old continue his nap whilst he sleeps in the car (with everything turned off), on the driveway, in a position I can see him from.

I will ensure he has his story before bed, after his night bath, and will be asleep by 6.30, 7 at the latest, also

I disagree, and have proof. Firstly, it was 3 years ago. And secondly she's perfectly fine. Better than fine, in fact.

String me up.

:rotfl:

Eta: she's been naked all day (her choice), is watching telly, hasn't had dinner yet and won't be going to bed till about 9pm. Call the firing squad.
