Walk by a Sprint Retail store and spot a baby, alone in a car, while its 82 degrees outside. No shade, no A/C…nothing. And the mother has the nerve to have this attitude. No concern for her child's well being until attention is called towards it. I wanna make this somewhat viral, to spread awareness. If you see something, say something. This ISNT right. Share this if youd like. P.S. sorry for the shitty angle, im six foot five lol#badparenting #stupid

You would like to think that everyone knows not to leave kids or animals in a hot car. Unfortunately, that is just not the case. For one man in Torrance, seeing a baby alone in a car with the windows up and engine off was just too much.
After spotting the one-year-old alone in the car, Carl Paz started recording on his cell phone and entered a Sprint store – where he confronted the child’s mother.
“But I mean, it’s hot outside,” Paz tells the mother. “Is it really that hot?” she responds. “It really is,” says Paz.
Paz told CBS 2 the temperature was around 80 degrees outside.
“As we speak, the baby is in the car. As a good parent, I would go out there and be like, ‘Maybe I’ll go and check on my baby,’ ” Paz told the unnamed woman.
She responded with, “I can see him. He’s not crying. I’m watching him.”
The conversation between the two continues for a bit, all while the store manager can be heard taking a stand – only that stand is against profanity instead of a kid left in a hot car – I suppose because that Sprint store is in bizarro world.
It is illegal to leave a child alone in a car no matter the temperature or circumstance according to Torrance Police – who are looking into whether a crime was committed.
