On Monday, I took to the East Coast Radio Facebook page to share a story about my friend, and I was blown away by the response. 

A friend of mine forgot her baby this weekend at a restaurant and walked out. Fortunately, the staff ran after her with baby in hand. My friend cited that she rushed out and it completely slipped her mind.

Well, I wanted to find out if other people have experienced a similar situation (either now or during their childhood), and the comments that came through showed that she's not the only one to have messed up.
