*Yes, this may be difficult for some to listen to or hear.*
Hot car deaths are a thing. In fact the numbers are dangerously higher than anticipated. 1000 children have died in car deaths since 1990. 37 children under the age of 15 die each year from heatstroke, or vehicle hyperthermia.
Also, have you ever heard of "forgotten "Baby Syndrome?" This refers to when a parent accidentally leaves a baby or child in a locked car and walks away without thinking about their child or children in the back seat.
We should not judge these parents—remember these are accidents. Sometimes motor memory kicks in and you are preoccupied with tasks and future duties. Even a well-intentioned loving parent gets distracted, and 56% of car deaths still occur.
As we get better with technology and education, we must remember our imperfect brains need assistance—our human memory is faulty and can fail us at any time. Children are the focus here, but an elderly loved one should not be left in hot cars either.
Anxiety can trigger depression and other behavioral, physical, and mental health issues. It is especially hard if you are dealing with other personal, work, relationship, or family-related issues. Please be aware that it is okay to ask for help.
