I get what the gist of the article is about however isn't this a real risk?
Maybe in the other countries they leave the windows down but in America windows are up for security fears?

edit: For the down voters I'm talking about the job interview, not 5min to go get a coffee. It just seemed like a bad example to prove the articles point
Plus it was just a question...
- alkonaut 8y agoLeaving a child in a car for a long time is a bad idea everywhere. It’s fine to do if you have to pop into a store and the child is old enough to understand (and it isn’t hot and sunny, and/or the child can handle the door on their own). But for a job interview??
