Well, when I google carseat it asks if I meant car seat so I type it like that now because google tells me so, lol!:cool:

carseat. It says it's spelled wrong, but then it also says that seatbelt is spelled wrong too.

I type car seat now, used to be carseat, sometimes I still do. When I refer to the vehicle seat I say the seat in the car, I used to just say seat.

when you look them up at babies r us it's car seats. but now i'm thinking it makes sense carseat-child seat and car seat-vehicle seat. i'm so confused!

:yeahthat: I think we "voted" before and agreed to it that way.

The problem with carseat=child restraint and car seat = vehicle seat, though, is not everyone does it that way. So it's extremely confusing. Perhaps we need to agree on child restraint and vehicle seat instead of some version of car seat/carseat? :)

IMO...

Carseat = Child safety seat

Car seat = Vehicle seat

:D

Exactly my way of thinking. :)

I always say carseat for a harnessed seat. I say booster seat for a belt positioning booster, and I say vehicle seat when I mean vehicle seat, just to eliminate confusion over whether I mean a child restraint or a vehicle seat. :p

ETA: Seatbelt is one word to me...so is shoulderbelt. I'm fairly certain I'm in the minority on that, though. :cool:

ETA #2: Lapbelt is also one word. :p

Exactly MY way of thinking, although carseat/car seat doesn't matter much to me. :p
