@katrina2017 Serious Question: Would that be so bad if it were in a locked garage attached to the house? I used to do that, (and still sometimes do), with my boys because they would not transfer well, but I had a whole routine. I would close the garage, open both sliding doors of the minivan, get the cordless home phone and call my cell phone, answer, put the cordless phone on speaker, put the cell phone on speaker and mute, put the cordless phone in the van next to the sleeping child, keep my cell phone next to me and use it as a de facto baby monitor. I would leave the door from the house into the garage open, and physically check on them every 5-7 minutes.
The ONLY way I can think of this being an issue, is it may make kids slightly more comfortable with being alone in cars, (which is scary AF), but I would make sure get them as soon as they started to stir. The neighborhood is safe, the garage is insulated and temperate. You could always do some crazy ‘what if’ mental gymnastics, but I don’t put much stock into that type of thing.
Seriously though, if someone sees something unsafe about this scenario that I haven’t thought of, I would be very interested to hear.
