So a neighbor of mine called me tonight. She made a appt. for a car seat check tomorrow with the police station here (she said she asked if he was a CPST and they said he was). She asked me to come along. I'm proud of her for taking these steps to make sure her new seat is installed correctly (and told her that).
She had her 2, almost 3 year old in a HBB and I talked her into getting her back into a harness (yeah I know, RF'ing is safer but I have the feeling she would have blown me off totally as she thinks I'm crazy for having my 4 year old RF'ing - baby steps - get her back harnessed was priorty - like I've seen someone on here say - it's easier to make one step than two at one time), she did listened and went and bought a GN right before Christmas.
She said she wanted me to go with her to the police station in the morning to get our (yes our) seats checked. I agreed to go with her to support her and show support for her new decision of re-harnessing her daughter.....but IDK, I'm not sure I want a police officer messing with my installs and I'm not sure I want a opinion (espically if he's not up to date) on having my 4 year old RF'ing when majority around here are in boosters. I'm not sure how much experiance this police officer will have with my seats (TFP, Frontier and Radian XT are what is installed in my truck).
IDK, just a rush of thoughts came over me when she said the magic word "our" and when I asked her, "Mine too?" and she said "Yes." I agreeded like I said to support her and her decision (and basically a pat on the back for making a good decision to re-harness her child).
I espically don't want a lecture about RF'ing in front of someone who thinks I'm crazy to begin with (must not be too crazy as she re-harnessed her child, but I think y'all kwim). IDK I could be totally wrong and this guy could be all for it, know the carseats (and know about rear face tethering), etc....
