I had this in the tech area but didn't get any traffic over there so I wanted to see if anyone here could help me out-
I dropped my daughter (4 1/2) off at preschool today and was told they were taking an impromptu field trip to the next town to the playground (the one at her school is being re-done). I signed a form and was told to put her car seat in the bus. They have two little mini buses that just have lap belts. So I installed it with the lap belt as tight as I could but it was still so wobbly and there was no place to hitch the top tether. Is this safe? this is my first experience with my kids on buses so I have no idea! I know buses are generally safer than cars but this didn't seem safe to me really- I kept thinking her face would smash into the seat in front of her with no top tether to catch her car seat? what's the best approach in this situation?
thank you
