That was my experience also, and for all of the cry-babies & bleeding hearts on this thread, it happened to me in So Cal during warm weather. Didn’t hurt us any. I guess we were tougher back in the 50’s.
I think there are too many meddlers out there nowadays and some of them need to be made an example of so that the others stop sticking their nose into everyone’s business.

I bet your mom did not leave you alone in a car when you were 6 months old.
Would you leave your 6 month old grandkid(s) alone in the car for 50 minutes today? I really doubt you would. If you did I bet the parents of your grandchild would rip you a new one.
