She sat next to me with her 5 and 2 yr old and an infant in a bucket. I noticed the belly clip and loose falling off the shoulders straps right away. I sat for a couple of minutes pondering whether I would say something and decided to just go for it. So I turned and told her I am a car seat safety fanatic and wanted to share some information on how to properly secure her baby. She was very receptive and adusted everything and asked if that was right. I showed her the pinch test and how to position the chest clip. I was so happy to see that sweet babe safely restrained! I then handed her an ERF postcard I carry with a link to c-s.org. She thanked me and started reading it. She turned to me again and said can I ask you a question. I of course was thrilled that she wasn't brushing me off and wanted to learn more. She asked about moving her 5 year old to a booster. I told her about it being a maturity thing and that he is at an appropriate age as long as she feels he mature enough. I explained about sitting properly 100%of the time. I also explained when a FF harnessed seat is outgrown and that there are seats with higher harness limits that convert to a booster. She was very thankful.
Anyway that's it. Just wanted to share
