I agree - it's pay at the pump or no petrol at all quite frankly (maybe when they are much older it's different - I'll wait till they are). In the meantime, I just wondered if anyone had the legalities of this sorted - it is the law or just a recomendation at the moment. I believe in The US and Australia, it's a criminal offence but it's very hard to pinpoint it in the UK.

Thank you - can hardly see to type. So pertinant right now.

I have been researching this and I would be interested to hear the views of other Mums/childminders/nannies/homecarers. Ofsted state that if you are a carer, then under no circumstances should you leave a child unattended/out of sight. Is this correct? This being correct, then leaving children in the car out of line of sight would not be good? Or do you think 5 mins to pick up milk or another child is ok? Would really like your views on this one. Many thanks
