I was at dinner last night with two other couples who also have children. One couple was saying that their almost 2 year old is 36 lbs and that she is a big girl. The other couple who was a 2.5 year old said oh good... now you can put her in her car seat using the seat belt. They have been doing this for their 2.5 year old since she was 35 lbs. I quickly interjected that they can't do that b/c it's unsafe and they said well she's 40 lbs now so it's okay. I had to just leave the topic alone at that point but I'm goiong to tell my other friend that the info is wrong... especially since they have a MA. Why do people who don't know a thing about car seats have to spit out advice for everyone?
