So do you leave a carseat with anyone who watches your child? Sometimes I drop my son off at my mothers (in the same town, 2 miles away) while I clean the house or do some running around. I have an extra car seat but she never takes him anywhere and a lot of the time when she goes out with her friends she is the one who drives so she needs the room in her car. I can't really trust her to install the car seat herself (she's one of those people who will give her bottle of water to someone else to open ).
Am I being a bad parent to not insist that she have the carseat installed all the time?
