thoughtlessly
In reckless fashion
Thoughtlessly means without consideration or care.
Someone who acts thoughtlessly fails to think about consequences or others' feelings: She thoughtlessly mentioned the divorce in front of the children.
The word can also mean carelessly or automatically—doing something without deliberate attention: He thoughtlessly drummed his fingers on the table.
