A few months ago, I noticed that my parents' back up booster seat for my nephew was expired so I took it. We were talking about it this morning how they need to check that when they buy a used car seat (a conversation for another day) and my Dad was insisting that car seat expirations are ridiculous. I tried to explain that the plastic degrades over time and his response was "it can't possibly degrade that much"
Then I tried to tell him that the technology changes in 6 years and he said "yeah I guess, but it's exactly the same seat they make now." (Graco no back booster)
Any other reasons that I can use to convince him? And are there any good websites or flyers about expired seats?
I'm pretty confident that he wouldn't use an expired seat (because I see them and take them haha) but I want to be sure that he understands that it isn't okay in case I'm not around..
