Is it illegal in WA state to leave a child in a car unattended?

It is not illegal to leave a child in a car in Washington unless the car is left running. However I would never leave my young child in a car. I would leave a teenager alone in a car, they hate to be seen with mom or dad anyway. :-)
My daughter called the police one day because a young child was left in the car and the poor thing was upset and crying. The police told her there was nothing he could do because the child was not in danger.
The mother eventually showed up and demanded to know what was going on, the policeman explained the concern. The mother was so angry, she waited until the officer's back was turn and she flipped off my daughter. Hopefully the incident made her stop and think.

Leaving your child alone for that long isn't illegal. It is the parents opinion to gauge weather your 14 year old kid can keep your 6 year old safe and sound for 3 days. Truthfully I wouldn't leave them alone. If anything happens to them there is a good possibility that you could be charged with endangerment of a minor in my view. But no.

If not, then he doesn't have to do anything for you.not true, illegal or not he is the father and will have to pay child support. my husband has a child from a previous marriage and we pay child support, but a few years ago before we were married he left and returned to Mexico for a few months. his ex filled for child support through the state and received it, and we are paying that back to the state as well. you need to talk to him about paying you, and if he refuses, then contact your state child support office and tell them you situation.AnswerDepending on your age you could end up in jail youself for statutory rape.
