(...) I have forgotton my son once in a Wal-mart. He was 12 yrs old and I was doing my shopping, and he wanted to play the game display in the electronics, so he was playing while I was shopping. It was the day before his birthday and I was very stressed trying to get all this stuff for a huge luau Party, and running around like a mad woman. Got all my stuff checked out, drove half way home before I had realized he was not with me So embarrassing! Thank god! by the time I got back there he was still playing that darn game and didn´t even realize. I of course didn´t tell him.

Today he turns 15, and I´m sure I need a few more things for our cook out tomorrow I´ll be sure to bring him home with me this time!

I left my new born son outside the village shop - he was about 4 weeks old. I totally forgot I had had a child. Mind you, I did not get far before someone was running after me with the pram.

OMG if such cases are so common then I should buy handcuffs and chain myself to the pram everytime I leave the house
