Sadly aktreefrog there are those that don't think any child is safe anywhere

People have gone nuts. Statistically kids are safer than when most of us grew up. We as a society have become so risk averse we swaddle our children in bubble wrap. Then wonder why they can't function as adults. 

I see nothing wrong with leaving a child in a locked car for a few minutes. Less than 300 stranger abductions occurred across the ENTIRE country the last time statistic was reported. There are times when hauling your child, or children, across an icy busy parking lot is magnitudes more dangerous than leaving them unattended for a few minutes. 

We over protect kids then gleefully mom-shame for anything outside our personal risk bubble. We are blind to the damage we do to the child's development. Take away good parents because you disagree with their risk assessment? How is that better for the child?

Kids require freedom with its associated risk, so they can develop into strong adults.
