I belong to an April 2006 birth board (for my little one, Joshua) and someone posted a video of her son crawling...okay, cute...no big deal. Well you look to the right side of the page (photobucket) where you can click next to go to the next picture and I see a carseat, so of course I have to look. This is what I see (mind you this baby is not even 8 months old...and that's only 1 problem):
So I sent her a private message...I had to...there was no way I could say nothing! I was very nice...told her the video of him crawling was just too cute and he was so handsome and I know she loves him and wants to keep him safe...bla bla bla (which he is cute, don't get me wrong, but that's not the point, lol). I explained that the AAP recommends rear-facing for as long as possible and asked her to please take the time to read the articles and crash test videos I linked her to. I really hope she will look at the information and make the right decision!
