I saw this pop up on my FB newsfeed.
I'm trying not to judge but leaving a baby in your car to do a return is really tough to understand.
I'm not perfect and I have twins so one of my babies has been alone in a car while I go in to grab the other. So I can't argue that babies should never be left alone. I think for a short time is okay.
I would actually be somewhat okay with her admitting that she forgot the baby was with her over actively leaving your baby in the car to do a return.
I'll also be open to believe she has been struggling with being a mother and has PPD (or something) and it was a lapse in judgement. I think that's what I'll have to believe.
