When I picked up my girls from school today I started chatting with another mom parked behind me. She had a 1 yr old and a 2 1/2 yr old in her van. The 1 yr old was in the vehicles 5pt harness seat but not tightened at all. The 2 1/2 yr old was on the seat with the vehicles seatbelt. I asked the mom is she had a seat for the 2 yr old and she said she'd outgrown it and she hadn't taken the time to get a new one. AAAARGH!!!! I told her that the car seat belt won't protect her in an accident since it doesn't fit her tiny body and that she needed to make it a priority.
Her five year old came out, climbed in the front seat and buckled the belt then put the shoulder strap behind her back. I just don't understand taking such a risk with your child's life.
