“Another family was at the rest stop and noticed the girl was alone for a while,” Clara Thomas, deputy prefect of the town of Die, in the Drome region, said on French TV.
“They took care of her and called police to let them know."
The 3-year-old was only able to tell police officers what her car looked like and said “Daddy’s car drove away,” according to French media, which reported the incident on Sunday.
After driving more than 90 miles, the family heard on the radio a message from police asking them to pick up their daughter.
“They were obviously traumatized,” Thomas said, adding that the parents, who had “no previously reported problems,” were reunited with their daughter at a police station.
The family was heading south towards the coastal town of Saint Raphael, authorities said. They reportedly asked their other children, a boy and girl, if everything was okay, and no one noticed the toddler was missing.
Local police said they would talk to the prosecutor in Valence, the nearby town, to assess whether further action should be taken.
How can you forget your child though and the other children didn't notice their sister was missing? There may be something more behind this or they may have truly 'forgotten' their 3 year old child.

What kind of parents b this? My mom sees non of us for minutes and she starts panicking, muchless forgetting us in a car for 3 whole hours.. Han han..
ReplyDeleteBros abeg no vex o which of ur mother are u talking abot I tot u said Linda was ur mom or u still get anoda mother. U be real loco.
DeleteWhat were the parents thinking?
ReplyDeleteIt is well
Strange...
ReplyDeleteYou can only hear such stories in Overseas. Irresponsible parents.
ReplyDeleteI'm out ***CATCH ME IF U CAN***
This kinda tin happens... so I don't know y dere should even be any investigation on d case.. people do forget entirely.
ReplyDeleteOh!
ReplyDeleteBad.Outright parental Neglet.
ReplyDeleteSerious, there is something to it, how can you forget your child and won't notice for 2hours even her siblings didn't notice her.
ReplyDeleteDifferent ways to look at this story. Though I must share, my neighbor normally helps drop my kids and her kids at school before heading to work. There was a day she told me she had dropped off the kids and made to turn around for work, she was making a u turn and looked.into her mirror and noticed my 1 yr old daughter (who can be eerily quiet for an hour and sing for the next hour) was still in d car at the back seat (sienna). So basically the teachers missed her and didn't take her out of the car and she just assumed all the kids had been escorted out. Bottom line is she could have gotten to work and even left her in d car without being aware. Thank God she saw her through the mirror. These things DO happen unintentionally
ReplyDeleteMadam I don't agree with this it's a total failure on the teachers part and dat of ur neighbour. I hav 4kids I ensure dey all vacate my car wen I drop dem off I av observed dat lately most mothers are absent minded my wife is damn guilty of dat. Even in church I get up from the men's wing and go see wat my kids are doing even wen dey cross my wing to the toilet I use my eyes to follow them to ensure dey are bak in children's class. Wen church is over I make sure I close d door of my car. In Skol I personally turn around to watch them exit the car. At home if my kids are silent for 5minutes am on my feet to seee y dey are silent.age 1 to 12 for kids is wat I call thge physical development of kids any injury will b devastating from 15 u can relax a bit. So don't tell me a kid is in d car and u drive off with out noticing it. That's negligence
DeleteU must be a darling dad......love me not, love my kids is enuf
DeleteU such a careless mom... How can u even leave ur 1yr old wit anoda person? Shameee!!!!
DeleteSuch a gud dad
DeleteHmmmm. Wht a shame and I wil call dis shop alone not d case of home alone!

ReplyDeleteHmmmmm very funny 4got ur own child. What are u thinking
ReplyDeletelolz..its called carelessness and over thought.
ReplyDeleteI was forgotten once also at same age, but theirs is a small family, mine was a large family.. though I was d only girl but had a younger bro that takes all my mummy's attention.. I keep using that against them in my teenage years that they left me behind n don't really care about me. lolz, they only realise I was missing when they got home, they blamed one of my Aunt and elder bro that was suppose to look after me, was told I was found having a nice time playing with some older kids. thank God it was in a church premises.. It may jus be as simply as that, don't think any other stories is attached to it, but the siblings shld ve noticed though, jus two of them. One of my brothers noticed my absence.. that'y parents should be xtra-vigilant when it comes to handling toddlers.
