unmindful
Paying no attention
Unmindful means not conscious or aware of something, often implying negligence or inattention: unmindful of the dangers, unmindful of her responsibilities.
The word suggests failing to keep something in mind that should be considered.
It's more formal than simply forgetful, carrying a hint of carelessness or disregard.
