While MIL was out of town, I scoped out her car & garage (yes, we had permission to be there, LOL). I found 2 expired boosters in her car. Should have grabbed pics of those. One was a FP Safe Embrace, the other a Graco My Cargo.
And then there was this on the shelf:
And then I noticed how the tether strap was routed. Umm, I don't think it came like this:
Fortunately, she was open to tossing that seat when she came back, even though it hadn't quite expired. I made a casual comment about it being a bummer when all the seats are expiring at once, and mentioned maybe she should check her other seats' expiry dates. Things are touchy enough without me saying "Yeah, and I took your keys & snooped in your car and you need to toss all your seats". I figured, quit while I'm ahead and hope she follows up with the boosters on her own. If she doesn't I'll say something to SIL since it's her kids using them. One of them is turning 4 tomorrow. Yeah, I already said something about that.
