My Dh respects that I've read/reasearched and he has done zero. So any car seat decisions are mine to make. He's aware of basic CPS. He'll notice a tiny FFing baby, a toddler in a booster or a dirty nasty ancient seat. He uses a car seat properly. He can install just as tightly as I do. So, he cares enough about his kids to do what I've discovered is best. But, he does get a faraway look when I start talking about the merits of the MA, Radian, and Advance.
DH happened to see the carseat on the patio, and asked the new father, "You're just using this as a carrier, right? You're not actually putting her in this for car rides?" When the father said yes, they were using it in the car, DH was like, "That thing looks like a death trap, it looks old as shit and doesn't even have a 5-pt harness."
Guys have it so easy! As soon as I read this, I knew it worked. Guys are just practical that way. I bet the other dad didn't have his feelings hurt at all. But if YOU had said the same thing to the MOM, it would have probably started a life-long feud and she'd have kept using that seat out of spite.
