Mom left child in hot car for two hours WHILE she was having an interview with child services.
https://www.foxnews.com/us/indiana-mom-allegedly-left-child-in-hot-car-during-interview-with-department-of-child-services-report
The kid was watching movies on a phone 'sweating perfusely' in the hot car. 86 degrees outside. Hel be fine according to police. SHE WAS MEETING WITH CHILD SERVICES AT THE TIME
Cunt
Quizz25S
Maybe she should put something important in the back of the car so she doesn't forget the baby /sarcasm
mitch0665
The revolving door of child services is what screws up most kids they keep sending them back to the parents. Give them a chance , a chance

looks like she has a barbers cape on..
Johnnythm123
Fuck this bitch! Double the time and toss her in as punishment.
DoNotTakeSeriousPls
Wow she’s hot. Must have wanted the same for her child.
Jackstraw207
She is actually pretty ... on the outside. What a waste.
VorpalHalcyon
I blame the child. That kid needs to get a job and stop wasting life sitting in a car watching movies. Kids these days smh

can we PLEASE lock these people in a hot car for 3-4 hours and see how they feel after? if you can't teach stupid people then punish them.

If anybody would understand you needing to bring the kids to an apt it should be child services.

Right?! I thought that too!

I honestly wouldn't be surprised if they didn't have accommodations for children.

I would not be surprised if the mother didn't want to give CPS any more access to her child than absolutely necessary. Kids say the 1/2

Had a college professor where I’m from forget to drop his kid off for daycare and the lil lad spent the whole day in a car at 95 degree temp
GoodAfternoonMyNameIsRussel
Went to the daycare after he got off to pick his kid up only for them to say “you never dropped him off today”. lil fella didn’t make it
seexelle
I saw this on an episode of CSI
MishiMoshiSquishyToesies
That's horrible. Did he end up going to jail? I hope not, it seems like that would be punishment enough. But some people will insist on jail
warmyourbeans
I would be so broken maybe jail would be the best place for me to be.
creatineisasteriod
Is there an article or anything about this? Thats fishy
boardembraker
I remember this - in Raleigh, NC area iirc.
boardembraker
Tried to google it & so many cases I couldn’t weed through them all. Read a few where fathers were emotionally destroyed by their mistake.
arewenotkingsandqueenstogether
Happens a lot actually
GoodAfternoonMyNameIsRussel
Search for it in Evansville IN. Happened recently
r4dical0verride
How the fuck didn’t he notice a dead kid in the car that afternoon? Or am I missing something?
Waitihavesomething4this
Also some kids are small enough they are in rear facing seats and you can’t see them unless you have a mirror back there. Then again
Waitihavesomething4this
Physically getting in your car twice and missing that is a totally different story
r4dical0verride
Yeah this seems fishy.
NeynasGhost
If the kid falls over and passes out, they aren't likely taking up much space or making noise. "The kid didn't make it" may imply that the
NeynasGhost
child was alive but unresponsive when found, but either way, I don't think bodies start to smell right away, so hard to notice there, too.
r4dical0verride
Yeah that’s the bit that tripped me up. I thought when you die your bowels release, so the car should have stank of hot shit.
arewenotkingsandqueenstogether
Super easy when they're rear facing
tommyrulz
MAYBE when folks are called into CPS, the first question should always be...”where are your kids right now?”
abrownangel2
Erm, that's probably asking a bit much from imbeciles.
CaffeineManic
What a GREAT idea!
kyorsmuckers
I agree or asking when the appt is made where the kids will be. Some people don’t have babysitting options
mwoodman
It would be painfully ironic if CPS was unable to provide a safe area for kids while their parents were in a meeting.
pygmypufftrampstamp
Many cases of neglect that I saw as a foster parent were loving single moms working multiple minimum wage jobs with no child care support.
mwoodman
tarataqa
I'm calling CPS right now.
WeAreJustDustInTheWind
Anyone old enough to remember when the late news asked " do you know where your kids are"

What was the reason not to bring the kid in? CPS seems like an ok place to bring kids.
tofuinabox78
Its 10pm somewhere
ProfessorPritt
My step mom in law worked for CPS and she always asked but, ever heard of overworked / underpaid /underfunded?

It’s 10pm, do you know where your children are?

I can tell you half would have no clue.
randomwcuman
I also worked in CPS for 14 yrs. Not necessarily. Also they friggin lie
PJVeddersGirl
I'd say the kinda cunt who does shit like this wouldn't shy away from lying
MyBestFriendisaBobblehead26
Put the kids on the phone ya lying bitch! :)
zagibu
Well, they could check it.
PJVeddersGirl
How though? They wouldn't assume every asshole has their kid in a hot car. What if she had left them with some drug dealer? They wouldn't >
PJVeddersGirl
Traipse around the city to check.
mrredbuttons
I work for CPS and from my experience that question would have been followed by a lie
kylebad7776
Me too, it's too hot in Texas to be leaving kids in the car at all, much less long enough for an interview.
imnotyourbuddy
Sad
randomwcuman
Also what this person said
goblinart
Well, then you check if they actually are there... but that would probably cost money.
abion47
A lie would be nice to have on record for proving neglect though.
mrredbuttons
I ask where the kids are every time unless they are in front of me
Trollingstoned
Question for a CPS worker then : is there some kind of play room so that kids can come inside with their parents?
SvelteMarvin
yes but I don't leave kids in it unsupervised under a rough age. During school years we have college interns, but summer... it's bad
mrredbuttons
At my county office there is a play room but also other rooms that aren't specifically for kids to hangout in but that they could
BobaFettApproves
Why don't they have a supervised play room?
ArcaneConjecture
Because that would be to fucking much like the right thing.
adventurekitten
$$$$
FiftyShadesOfMascarpone
That was my first thought too. They could even give the kids a brief medical checkup while they're there.Might help prevent abuse or neglect
randomwcuman
Yea CPS doesn't do medical evLs. They can refer if the need presents itself
annaZon
That would be nice but CPS is already so staggeringly underfunded there’s no way they could muster the money to do either of these things.
pygmypufftrampstamp
"Underfunded". I used to foster. We had to fight hard to get approval for hockey equipment for one boy in his rec budget. Director 1/2

Dustorn
It may seem that way, but I'd need to see some proof that it's the case, because it seems awfully incorrect.
electronicbovine
So many downvotes....ignorance or malice? Look up history of eugenics (including in America).
UnhelpfulAnswers
More frightening than leaving a helpless child in a hot car for 2 hours?
EggFooYung
Because i think people should have to have training, a background check, and a mental fitness exam before being entrusted with a new human?
ColdestOne
I wonder how many people who have benefited humanity would not have been born. And how many rich abusive parents would have "slipped by."
Damselwithsomedistress
Exactly

Unfortunately as good as this would be it is one of those super slippery slop things. Imagine how the test could be cheated and perverted

I feel like a normal guy but a test like that would scare me. what if I cant supply my folks with grand babies. would there be a 2nd test?
electronicbovine
Yes, indeed. Eugenics sounds like a terrible idea.

Dustorn
Consider for a moment that you are actually arguing in favor of eugenics. What the fuck?
KnowmSaying
Wow this is being downvoted??
electronicbovine
The reaction to my frightening comment? Frightening.
nukethelizards
So, eugenics? "Improving a human population by controlled breeding"
StupidFreakingName
Not eugenics. Improving the quality of life for children by requiring parents to know how to raise them / care for them BEFORE having them.
Iamhereforyourviewingpleasure
Imagine how much money the ones that test you child raisning skills to approve you for breeding would make.
StupidFreakingName
Honestly, I'm sure they would be paid too much, but I prefer that to the insanity that exists now with children raising children.
StupidFreakingName
^ not a comment on teen parents, rather "adults" that still behave like children.

AKA Motivation for the Nazi party
AmicusCuriae
Try deepening your understanding of the “motivations” of the nazi party before attaching them wildly to other concepts that you don’t like.
nukethelizards
Other motivations aside, it's an inextricable fact that they were motivated by the "science of eugenics"
LarvaLamp
They were also motivated by economics, religion and the occult, so take that as you will.
LegendaryKatman
The reqson we have people like her is because of social engineering via social safety nets and even things like medical technology. I'm not
LegendaryKatman
arguing for their total abolishment but people should realize this fact and the arrogance of thinking we could engineer a better humanity...
usersubbordercontrol
Hey. I'm not saying the Nazis were good, but they had some good ideas.
LegendaryKatman
I feel like that's exactly how the nazis began. I'm pretty sure they didn't start with "let's murder millions of people whaddaya think?"
arfysdad
Perhaps you could name a few. Invading Poland? Final Solution? The SS? Medical experiments on children and the disabled? V2 rockets?
LegendaryKatman
But... but... "I hate people"
LarvaLamp
V2 rockets, yes, because it led to the space program.
DrShrinker
The autobahn and um... um... ok just the autobahn.

Just because they fucked it up does not the base idea is without value.
LegendaryKatman
Just like communism. In the entire history of humanity, every time it's tried they merely fuck it up, but it's still a good idea... got it
GuyDarras
Eugenics has been fucked up by almost every government that has tried it. The idea requires more trust than humanity is capable of.
Aathole
True. Unfortunately human nature is the problem with eugenics. Not the idea of eugenics itself. Eventually some bone head would fuck it up
LongtimeLurker7817
Yup. And now she lost both kids to child services, and rightly so.

I didn't see that she had the child already. We share mutual friends on social media but missed that in the article.

Hopefully only temporarily and the mother decides to fix her life up and make better choices
Atziloot
Reunification with family is always the primary plan, barring exceptional circumstances.
faptasticvoyage
If someone leaves their kid in the car to go to a meeting about if they can care for that kid, then they don't get to have kids anymore.
CrazyLizardLady86
I won't downvote optimism, but that crosses a line I think. I would hesitate GREATLY to give those kids back.
glitterwank
The state deeming you unfit to care for your children and then taking them away would change some people I think. On a very primal level.
CrazyLizardLady86
I know, my ex lost his from alcoholism, & then he gave up on recovery. But, still, you take children away for their good not the parents'.
GorgeFloyd
I love your optimism. X
alltinyshrimps1
After reading link, maybe she has mental health issues?
iknewyousobrieflyyoudeadsoapdog
DFCS goal is always family preservation. They'll ask for some bs parenting class and give them back.
iknewyousobrieflyyoudeadsoapdog
Source- family member has had children taken multiple times, always gets them back with nearly zero effort on her part
pennypoohbear
Yeah .... No. She lost her rights. They should be permanently taken away
Zenigma
Sadly, she won't. She is one of the most selfish people I've ever met. I've seen her tell her child that she couldn't afford to buy him food
Zenigma
Only to turn around and buy cigarettes and pop for herself.
Zenigma
I seriously hope she gets the help she needs to turn herself around. And be a good mother to her children. But knowing her past.. she wont.

MinxyJinx
Clearly she was already in danger of losing her kid and that didnt change shit
Nighthawk703
Eh, my cousin lost his kids to his ex so when they got back together he crashed his car into a wall with both kids inside.

Why is there a connection?

She already lost all rights to her oldest son due to drugs. Now this? I doubt she'll learn a thing.
GrantBaugh
Worked for an old co-worker of mine. She got sober has been clean for years and is a great mom. Unfortunately I bet she's in the minority
Zenigma
I know her personally.. Lost rights to her first child due to drugs. Just had a baby only a few days ago and now lost custody of him.
Zenigma
Her son that was found in the car watching movies was drenched head to toe in sweat.. She didn't even leave him anything to drink..
boardembraker
How you know her?
Zenigma
Grew up in the same small town. Everyone knows everyone type of town. I was friends with her for a few years.

Apparently he was locked in the car for nearly 2 hours before police arrived. So sad to see people I grew up with make the awful decisions.

Whoa, too far man. Jail and lose the kids but let’s not support genital mutilation in the USA.
DominicEast
How many US males are circumcised as infants now?
MrFlick
I don’t think suspending people’s abilities to have children when they’ve proven themselves incapable of doing so is to far. On the contrary
Cinema104
“Incapable” is subjective and I would not want to give our government the power to choose who can and can’t procreate.
MrFlick
I think we have a moral obligation to do so to make sure that people like her cant continually harm children.
xizar
That's not what genital mutilation does. You're looking for the phrase "forced sterilization". (also, gm has been in vogue in the US for 1/

"Leave something important that you won't forget about in your back seat. That way, you won't forget the child back there."

Blastergv9
It's not that the child is unimportant. It's autopilot mode. You've done this a million times without checking the back seat.
DoesItThough
Be missing a long time ago. Plus it's a pretty large item compared to anything else. Well except the dog, but he never stays in the car
arewenotkingsandqueenstogether
This is commonly misunderstood. It's not that the kid is unimportant, it's that most forgotten child cases occur when the driver doesn't
arewenotkingsandqueenstogether
Normally have the kid, and drives their everyday route to work on autopilot, like we all do.

I don't give a flying f*ck, I NEVER forgot my kids! For one thing, they were incredibly noisy...

Well, hopefully they’ll be placed with someone who isn’t going to kill them due to neglect.

you make a classic mistake. you need to assume only a monster would do such a thing, just so you feel safe.

I'm not sure what "safe" means. I'm have 3 kids and I would die if I lost my kids. They are the 2nd most precious to me (wife is 1st)
Gray365
sure, and have you heard of car accidents? can they happen to anyone? or do you believe they only happen to others?
wint
Maybe, but I've fostered kids that were given back to parents who clearly didn't want them and just wanted the money they got. 1/2

It is stupidly easy to get your children back after endangering their lives, and requires next to no proof of capability as a parent.
