How Forgetful You Can Be?

Omg! She forgot her baby! She must been very occupied. As for me, I'm also a victim for forgetfulness disease. I sometimes forget to bring my reading glasses which is very important in my workplace. Sometimes I forget to get my change from a grocery store. Sometimes, I even forget to pay the fare haha!

Hello there! I am also a very forgetful type of person. I don't know why, but I am not like this when I was still single. When I became a mother already, I tend to be very forgetful that I forgot many of the things im having with me, but thankfully, not to the point that i would forget my baby inside a cab. I also forgot occasionally that im bringing my umbrella with me, but now, I didn't forget it anymore because im having a pricey one so the tendency for me is to look for it every now and then. Last 3 months ago, while inside the restroom of one big hospital here in our country, I forget to pick up the paper bag which contains facial skin care products worth 70 dollars. I am so sad about it because its not mine. Its the belonging of my husband's aunt who just requested me to bought it for her. She just gave me the amount to buy for it. Thankfully, i was able to report it to the security officer and he allowed me to see the CCTV camera that's why we were able to locate the person responsible for getting my lost belongings. All I remember is that, I felt so relieved knowing that I could gave the items to the right owner and I do hope that I will never ever forget anything again in the future, which I knew is impossible. Have a nice day ahead!

Well I took off my glasses last night and this morning I could not remember where I put them. Thankfully my wife saw them this morning and told me where they were or I would probably still be looking . I don't see how anyone could forget their child though. That is pretty terrible. When I have one of my kids out with me I am constantly worried about them and watching them.

When i was in school, i keep on forgetting my ID. Now that i am employed, i keep on forgetting my lunchbox at office. Usually really it is the ID, second is the cellphone, third is my towel.

A mom can forgot about their children is something very serious. That is something that cannot be acceptable. There are many news in the past that mother left their children in their car unattained for hours. And they just go for shopping and forgot all about their children still in the car. I have read a articles writing about there are a place in the train station if not mistaken it is in London that kept the stuff that left in the train by the passenger. There are a few thousands stuff waiting for the people to claim . I think that is due to the busy life that caused them to forget about their belonging when they were in the train. In my whole life, I only forgot or consider left my Walkman in the bus when I was still schooling. That is the only thing that I ever forgot to take back.

In all honesty, I can be really forgetful at times. But, some stuff I can never forget. Those happy moments, and sad moments I will never forget. But, those moments I experience by passing, I tend to forget. Well, some chores that my parents ask me I may forget those.

I felt naked. I once ran to the bus and I didn't have my watch on.I felt naked. I need my watch so I know when my buses are coming and when to leave work. Luckily there are many clocks at work but some are fast and others are slow. I felt so out of sorts All day. I have only done this twice!2 times too many!

hi thesids, To be frank I am horribly forgetful. Ask me some one;s birth day or anniversary or anything important I would look into your face asking you the question. I know, I tend to forget thinks so easily but still have not built a habit of jotting them down. On Several occasions I have forgotten to bolt the door of my house. I am often chided by my friends as I forget their dates.

How does a parent forget a child. I would have to think your mind is truly somehere else when you forget your child somehere., forgetting an inanimate object can be more readily accepted than to forget your child.

Hi thesids, not only in London forget their umbrella here in India also we do the most. But this is a shocking thing how can a mother will forget her child, that is very unbelievable. Always moms will think about their children. May be she is in depression or in frustration yet how can she forget? Peculiar mom. Have a good day thesids

Wow..that news is quite shocking. I am a really forgetful person. Sometimes i even forget what I had just said or what I am about to say- when taling to friends.. I also forgot some of my things- like hanky, notebook and umbrella..

Hi sid Thats really shocking that a mom forget her child.. well people can forgot things but own child is much. Personally i forget my lots of things.. I mean my wallet, mobile and other small things.. Mostly i forgot those things in my car. Whenever i put them on dash board i always forgot to take it back. Once i forgot my bike kitchen at my hometown and then i had to move whole week in auto in city. Have a great day AKP

There I remember a movie called "50 First Dates". In that movie, a woman has problem with her memory and she can only remember what happened on the current day. After she wakes up the next morning, she cannot remember anything that happened before. But nevertheless, she is able to fall in love with someone, and with the help of diaries and videos they can even have children together. I find that movie very interesting because it is a different wawy of life, and it is a great challenge for all that have to deal with such people.

I know that very well. Sometimes I forget where I laid certain things such as CDs, bags etc. And then I search for it quite a long time and cannot find it! Sometimes I even panic and think to myself I will never see it again. And someday, I discover it if I don't expect to find it. Such experiences several people I know have already made including my mother.

Woah sids, that was sure forgetful and in societies nowadays, losing one's baby would mean 'almost' or 'total' doomsday for the parents as there are a lot of kidnappers and human traffickers. Well, as for me, I've not forgotten such major things before but my mother once put the TV remote control into the washing machine and found it the next day after searching the whole house. Another time was that she left the table cloth in the fridge and found it hours later, LOL!

As for forgetting a child--there was a big story a few years back about how a father left both of his young children strapped in their carseats in the locked car on a 90 degree day for several hours while he went to work. . .they both perished, of course. His excuse was that he forgot to drop them off at the babysitters before heading to work, and since they were sleeping and quiet, and because he had a lot on his mind, he forgot they were there. Awful, huh? On a lighter note, my husband and I forget where we put things all the time--currently, we can't remember where we put the car keys. . .they have been missing for two days!

Hi there! Talking about forgetting things, I am definitely one of them! I used to have so many things in my mind that I actually forget a big portion of theem. By the time I remember them, it has long past the deadline. I solve the problem with..my blackberry bold and I am definitely counting on this phone like a personnal assistance to me! I find another method is to write things down in a diary but I feel bringing a diary around is a big hassle :)

Hi thesids, Till I read this news item, I thought I was the most forgetful person in the world. But to forget a baby next to you in the cab, It must be a height of it all. I have lost count as to how many umbrellas I must have lost. Presently I run a cake shop and there I have to quiet often undergo a lot of embarrassment for forgetting to book the cakes the customers have ordered inspite of having a full proof arrangement for the same. The normal practice is to make an entry into the diary for the date the cake has been booked but due to some reason either not finding the diary in place or getting mixed up with some other customer at the same time. Result a huge embarrassment when customer comes to pick his cake.

hi sids.... I think this is the problem faced by every person and i am one of the most forgetful person in the world because i will forget everything i forget my mobile phone every time while i am going out and also i used to forget some books while i am going to my college this cannot be avoided because this came for us by birth and after we realised that we have have forgotten something some times i feel shy and some times i even get angry on me so this cannot be avoided...........

I sometimes forget things when I am not reminded. When in a hurry, I tend to forget important things. Later on, when I realized that I am losing something, I regret it. I go back to the house or have somebody pick it up for me.
