I've written about it multiple times on an automotive site for women. I can't imagine the pain and guilt knowing that you forgot your child. This type of thing terrifies me.

I have a sticky note on my computer at work that says "Slow down" on it, next to a picture of my son, so that helps remind me, but the panic and fear that stories like this breed in me is still just underneath the surface.
