i have been having a discussion w/a few friends on FB and no matter what i say, they are convinced that if you tighten the straps on a kids car seat really tight over their large jacket, then its perfectly safe. no matter what i say, they completely dismiss the whole compression idea.

does anyone have any documents, videos, etc. etc. that i could post? apparently, according to them, the whole issue is BS and a conspiracy (by whom....im not sure...lighter jacket making companies?????).
