Baby on Board!

Describe your reaction to the video. If you were in this situation, do you think you'd respond similarly to the way this couple responded? There's nothing stronger than a mother's love. What's one thing your parent or guardian has done for you that you know no one else would have done?

My reaction to the video is wow. The parents were not playing any games. I would most definitly respond in a similar way. One time my mom almost punched this woman in her face because she cursed me out. My mom is never mad so that was big.

Unknown said...

This video is truly amazing. I would act just like those parents did. I’d be doing all I could to make that dude stop. My mom has been the only constant in my life. I know I can always count on her to be there.

I would definitely of done the same exact thing the parents did to save their child. My reaction to the video is what in the world. If I were the parents I would of never left my child alone in the car with it on. This is because nothing is ever safe anymore and people don't care. My mother has done a lot for me and my brother because she is my parent. I can't describe one thing that my mom hasn't done for me or my brother.

I applaud those two for their effort to save their daughter. I don't think anyone can say how they would respond to a situation like this. My parents have done everything for me that no one else would do. My parents have always been there for me.

If the same thing happened to me I would probably react the same. However, I probably wouldn’t have let that guy leave. I would’ve beaten the guy until he couldn’t get back up. I also wouldn’t have left the baby in the car alone in the first place. The whole event happened as a result of the parent’s stupidity but they were lucky that they got their daughter and car back.

This is crazy! I would like to know why someone would steal a car with a child in it. I definitely do something similar if I was in this situation. I would not let someone get away with my child. When I was little I was sitting in front of a bonfire and I was swinging my legs an the chair launched me into the fire and my mom caught a glimpse and grabbed me out and I didn’t have a mark on my body from the fire.

That thief was pretty stupid but what the parents were able to do was amazing. I do not know how I would have responded to this. I don't think I have anything that my parents have done for me. I know that you, Mrs. Bryant, would have done the same thing and even more for your son.

Mary said...

I can't believe how the parents must have felt, but I am also confused as to why they put the baby in the car and stepped so far away. I know if I was in the situation I would probably react the same, it's their child. I would probably say that my mom has always watched out for me, even if I had know idea where she was she could always see me, and I know that even now she will always be around even if I can't see her.

I don't get why people are still stealing cars, you're going to get caught. A mother's love is very strong, this woman broke the window trying to get her baby back. I'm so glad this baby got home to her family, not stuck with some psycho. Why do people go all out just to steal, even put an infant in danger? My mom makes sure I'm good and that I do what is in my best interest. No matter how much lip I give her, she will always be supportive and loving.

Donovan said...

I expected someone would steal a car that was running with a child in the back seat. Yes, I would've tried to get my child back. My mom always takes my side, even when I know I've done something wrong, she will always take my side.

Sam said...

It is hard to put words to this event. I hope I would respond in the same manner if it was my kid in danger. I think that mother has done something for me; I can’t remember what the situation was. I don’t think that there is anything stronger than a mothers love, because I know that my mother would do anything for me. Just like the mother in the video did, I’m sure that my mother would do the same.

That was the most insanely awesome parenting video ever. Those parents unlocked the secret parenting powers to save their child. Those parents showed that they will do anything for their child and nobody should try to mess with them. Of course, there are many other parents in the world that would do the exact same for there children if they were in trouble.

Unknown said...

I was shocked when I saw this video. I can not beleive that taking just one step and that someone could be right there to capatilize on it. I always leave my keys in the car when I take a quick stop and I will continue to do the same. I would have done the samething. I do not remember right now for when my parents have done that no one else would have done.

Unknown said...

I was shocked to see this video. It was amazing to see the parents to take action against the criminal. I hope I would react in the same way. I am not sure what my parents have done for me but I know that I they have done great things for me. They have brought me things when I have forgotten them and taken me to the hospital; basically just being good parents.

tatianna said...

I think it is really stupid to leave the keys in the car while your baby is in the back seat. If I was in this situation I would have responded the same way.One thing my parent or guardian has done for me that i know no one else would do is love me.

I think this is crazy. That guy should be put in jail. I would have done the same thing. My parent's have always stood behind me and backed me up. Which i appreciate alot.

Unknown said...

First of all, why was the baby alone in the car? I would never leave my child alone in the car. I'd probably be able to get in the car in time like the guy in this video.

Unknown said...

I am glad that the baby survived. I can’t believe that the mother was strong enough to break the window. I wonder why the parents left the baby in the car by her self. That was a bad decision by the parents and the whole situation could have been avoided. I hope they find the suspect soon.

Hannah said...

This video was crazy. I thought it was unbelievable how much those parents went through to save their baby. I would hope any parent would respond like that. The parents shouldn’t have left the bay alone in the car with the doors unlocked anyways. If they would have taken more precautions this probably would have never happen.

Unknown said...

Oh wow I thought that they were very brave for what they did. It seems that they didn't even care if the carjacker had a weapon. But the bad part was that he got away. so many parents wouldn't even so anything they would of just watch. I know that when she gets older, they will tell her all about what happen.

Unknown said...

I would have responded just like they did, if not worse. They are some good parents; I would've been scared for my life. There is nothing stronger than a mothers love for her kids, and same goes for fathers. My parents have done a lot for my through out my life. I am glad they got there car and there kid, but I am sorry to hear that the guy didn’t get caught.

Peyton said...

I was shocked by this video. Though I can't believe they left the baby in the car, taking a couple feet away from it. Also, they were in a place they've never been. They should have had the baby with them; that's what I think. I definately would chase after the car, jump on it, and try to get in it. My parents have done so much for me. The one thing that made me so touched was when they went so much trouble to get me my car for my birthday. I couldn't ask for better parents, ever.

My reaction to this video was a hurt reaction. If I were in this situation I would of did the same thing and chase the car. If it was my baby I would fight to get it! My parents have did many numerous things for me. They do things, that other people would never do. They have worked extra long hours and hustled to get me what I needed. I truly thank them for that.

Unknown said...

I saw this story on the Today show, and it must have been a scary thing for the parents to go through. I hope I would be able to respond like they did, but I hope I wouldn't ever be put in this situation in the first place. My dad jumped into the lake behind our house because when I was five I fell in. He said he just instantly sprinted and dived in to get me.

Olivia said...

Who leaves their child in a running vehicle? I wouldn't turn my back for a second if I put my child into my car. I would have done something similar to what these parents did. I wouldn't just stand there and watch my baby being kidnapped. My parents would do anything to keep my safe.

Maurica said...

That was a very scary situation. I think I would have responded similarly because I would try to save my kid. In my opinion, there is nothing stronger than a mother's love. I'm just happy that the bady was alright. My parents are always trying to protect me from everything and I can totally see them doing something like that for me.

Anndrea said...

I think this was the most scariest thing that could ever happen to a new set of parents. I know I would respond the same way if it was my baby as these parents did. It was so unexpected to happen. I mean the way the man was walking normally then faster as he approached the car? Wow You wouldn't think something like that would happen and you were right there at the scene! My parents have taken care of me all my life and I know no-one else would do it. They're doing a very good job at that too and I love them so very much!

Unknown said...

I was shocked. I know I would reacted the same way or maybe even have done more. If I would have saw someone stealing my car with my child in it I would have had a fit. That man would not have gotten away if it was me. I remember my sister and I were walking and this old guy was trying to mess with us and he followed us all the way home. So, when we got home I told my dad what had happened and that the man had followed us home and he went downstairs and confronted him. Then a lot of other things happened with that, too much to type.

No they have an ugly baby. I would let the man take my baby. The only reason they got the baby back was cause the mother was so fat their pontiac couldn't handle the stress.
