Proposal

There seems to be an indescribable amount of baby deaths this summer and they're from being left in a hot car! Something needs to be done about this problem. Not only is it sad to hear about but it is also not beneficial for the people who forget their children. These people can either be jailed or have charges of murder put against them. 

Practical/policy solution: I propose that every parent gets a watch or bracelet mechanism that will send a shock or vibration through their body in order to remind the parent that they left their child in the car. If the bracelet goes over 10 miles per hour and the speed drops rapidly, the bracelet will wait a couple of minutes, to make sure that the person didn't just stop at a red light, then the bracelet will vibrate or shock the parent to remind them that they are forgetting something. 

Research solution: In order to form a practical solution I would first need to research why parents forget about their children when getting out of the car. Whether they forget because the child is quiet or just because they are in a hurry and have a scattered brain, finding out why the child is left would help to construct something to make it stop.

Media solution: I have found that it is easier to get people's attention through media when there a very sad story to go with the post. To get people to become aware of the problem, I would find someone with a story of their own child who has died or been injured from sitting in a hot car.
