I know I'm going to see this woman Thursday again at camp drop-off. We all smile at each mom's babies. We nearly all drag in an infant seat.
She carries an Evenflo Discovery. It looks like it's being used properly except it seems years and year old. It seems like a 5 pt. harness but the buckle has a red PUSH or PULL button. Almost as if there is just one clip?
I can't stand there with my new seat and say, hey, you need a new carseat. Her other child is 4 so I imagine she used it with him (and maybe others if she has more). I don't think they have a lot of money. If I had a new seat to give her, sure, I could mention I had one that just really needed a good home and would she be interested. But I don't.
(And the seat is so dirty that it's possible the dirt makes it look older than it is. How embarrassing if it isn't expired at all and I assumed it was).
Do I ignore this? Hey, if you're as carseat crazy as I am, admit it, this would bug you, wouldn't it? Just a bit?
