      I wonder if that’s because it’s one of the most mentally draining ages.

      Often the parents forget about them rather than intentionally leave them with no windows open.

        I wonder if it’s because 2-year-olds are usually pretty noisy, so when they’ve fallen asleep, it’s easier to forget that they’re even back there.

      Probably old enough the parent thinks they’ll be fine on their own for a bit, but young enough to be a hassle to bring along on a “short” errand.
