I love my cousin, but she just does NOT get it. She's almost 20yrs older than me and has a 4.5yo and a 7yo, who are also my godkids. The kids are with me a lot and she knows the rules in my car. Her 51" tall, 38lb 4.5yo son must be harnessed, and her 49" tal, 80lb, 7yo daughter must use the back portion of her booster.
I bought the FPSVD for her son when he outgrew his AOE (which I now own). They refused it and bought him a Compass booster instead for his birthday. GRRR....I bought their daughter a highback TB (two, in fact) and they constanly take off the back portion, even though their Suburban has super low seat backs. Half the time she she's not in it anyway, because "by law she doesn't have to be" (CA - 6 or 60). Her installs are horrible and my godson usually looks like this when buckled.
I had to take my godson somewhere last week and didn't have the FP with me. So I had to take his booster. I didn't want to take his Compass because my son is in the middle and the two seats don't fit together in my car. I asked for his sister's TB instead and she get's it out of her truck...it's got the torso portion on, but not the headrest!
She had no idea where it was, so I just moved Isaiah's seat and took the Compass - which he sat HORRIBLY in and it wasn't even set for his height! I'm going to try to talk her into a Nautilus this weekend. I HOPE it works because he's at least still using his Cargo as a spare. I don't know what else to do!
