Who should be charged?

Question

An animal owner is being charged for leaving their dog in a hot car. But I never see parents getting charged for leaving their child in the car. Why is this? Why is an animals life more important than a humans? I think if you leave any living thing inside a hot car you should be charged. Rather it's a pet, or a child etc.

Answer

I posted this just 2 days ago. A child was left in the car by the mother and almost died. The child would have if the father didn't find him. This mother didn't get charged. And I see it constantly on the news of parents not getting charged because as they say "accidents happen"
