And now I'm feeling really bad about it.
We were parked at Safeway when DH made a quick store-run and there was a little boy in the passenger backseat of a sedan and a male companion (maybe his dad?) was smoking outside beside the car.
So I peeked in the car (we were riding a truck so I could see down) and he was riding in a booster and the lapbelt portion of the seatbelt. The shoulder portion was behind him. My son is a tall 2 year old and the kid didn't look any bigger than him so I'm guessing he's 2 or 3. I contemplated saying something but I chickened out. Male companion got into the driver's seat and turned on the stereo really loud so I felt my window for intervention was lost. We drove away without me saying anything.
I took down the license plate though. Can I do anything with that?
So how do you deal with situations like this???
