Is it true that grandparents don't have to have carseats/boosters for their grandchildren?
My mom and her new husband insist it is a law, they checked with their assistant pastor at their church(who is also a police officer).
She is always taking her new husband's grandkids out to ice cream, ect.. (that is whole nother thread how she treats them better than my kids ).... I told her she has an expired LOW BACK booster in her car-it even has cracks in the plastic!(AVENT BABY IS THE BRAND).
She takes the 3 1/2 year old with her(she is about 34 pounds tops and very short), 6 year old(43 pounds, very short). She puts the 3 1/2 year old in a low back booster(has been since she was 18 months) and the 6 year old in a seatbelt or sometimes in the front seat.(she has an 89 corisca, so she says it is safe to use in front seat since it has no airbags, (UGHH).
So, I offered and even left at her house two low back boosters of mine(graco)....and even offered to help with the cost of a graco nautilus or apex.
She gave me the low backs back at easter and said they were taking up to much room!
So..... I drove with her once with the boys a few weeks back and she was upset that I had Logan and Michael(5 and 3) in carseats and thought it was a pain in the butt.
I don't know how to get it through to her head. SHe has seen my myspace page www.myspace.com/carseatsafteynut ....
Ughhh!!! Can I call the police on her?
