So.......what if someone, not wanting to be seen with a barefoot child in a store (they wouldn't want to be the cause for the damning of their generation's child rearing ability), left said child in the car while they ran in to grab something?

Or left a dog and two kids in a car while they ran into the local grocery store to grab a single item?

It's a no win.

Not everyone is going to conform to your belief of what the perfect parent is, and EVERYONE has bad hair days.
