Currently there are only 20 states in the U.S. with laws against leaving young children alone in a vehicle.  Indiana is not one of those states.  How many times have you seen on the news that a child has lost their life after a parent, their very protector, has somehow forgotten them in the back seat?  We have seen this countless times whether the child/ren pass due to extreme heat or extreme cold, something has to change!  Our children are our future and without them we have nothing.  I propose a law be made with age restrictions on when a child can be left unattended in a vehicle.  If a child is still in a 5 point harness seat, they likely cannot get themselves out if they need to due to heat or cold.  I also propose harsher penalties for these parents or caregivers.  This is negligence at its worst, and maybe if they had harsher consequences they would think twice before “forgetting” their child/ren!
