Showtime's "The Affair"

Just watched this and wondering if anyone else did? I was really bothered by the scene where the father puts the little girl into the van, *right* after she almost choked to death in the restaurant and he's so grateful she's alive, and puts her in a backless booster, does the belt and then automatically just slides the chest strap behind her back.

I personally know someone whose child is paralyzed due to a MINOR accident where he was wearing his belt this way. What scares me is how many people must do this. And was this a conscious decision that the show would show the dad doing this (I don't think so) or just the 'normal' way your everyday person uses seatbelts, boosters, etc. improperly.

I've googled and it seems I'm the ONLY person in the entire country who watched this show who is bothered by this. I'm not bothered by the show but more so that so many people make this mistake and don't think a thought of it.

Ugggg!

I just watched Spy Kids and the girl, Carmen, puts her seat belt under her arm. :(

They really just don't care and just, whatever happens, happens. You'd think SOMEONE on the sets of these shows would notice and speak up, but I guess not. *sigh*
