Definitely not as severe, but when I was younger (probably 5 or 6) I went out to dinner with a friend and his family and they forgot us there.
What happened was that after dinner my friend and I went to use the restroom. I think the mom did aswell. The Dad took off assuming that we were going to go with the Mom, and the Mom left assuming that we already left with the Dad.
Obviously this was before cell phones were popular, so it took a while to get a hold of the parents to come back and get us.
It was pretty cool, I remember getting to watch movies and eating free deserts.
