Dad abandoned baby in car by mistake?

A father said he made an "error of judgment" when he left his six-week-old baby daughter alone in the back of his vehicle in a car park.

....he returned home without his daughter

....after he had become unwell

....He said he had decided to get a taxi home but left Lilly behind in the car because he feared he would pass out.

....My wife woke up, got the wrong end of the stick and called the police. It was a huge misunderstanding," he said

ar$e hole, doesan't deserve kids with that totally irresponsible attitude.

Why did Dad take the daughter out anyway, where was the mother ?

Haven't read story, but heard all about it

I think it says that dad was taking her out for a walk.

gold123,
um, maybe he took the baby out cos he's the father ?

looking after babies isn't just a woman's job y'know............ although he's maybe a bit of a space cadet

I think it was one of those men things to do a job so badly that you never get asked again.....

The same story is in The Sun online and it claims he was looking after the child and left her in the car in a car park while he went for a drink. Got a taxi home after drinking, went to bed and forgot about the baby.

Well I'm glad he's not going to be getting 50:50 parenting if they part!
