How do you do that???? What I like to do at checks with babies who are in horribly is show how much I can get them out of their seat without unbuckling or changing the way the parent harnessed the child. Normally they come out until their legs hit the hip straps when I then tell the parents that I'm being gentle with their baby, a crash wouldn't, and they'd go flying. I'd bet I could get that baby out of that seat, legs and all, without waking her up.
Sheesh.
And mamabear, your friend was so proud of himself? What is it with men?? They're either the best (I read the manual four times and I read my car manual and I got the tools necessary and I've read about it online) or the worst, like your friend (I can improve it! The Tim Taylors of the world).
