It amazes me how ignorant people can be about car seat safety. I'm not perfect by any means, but this one is a doozy!
A good friend of ours came over to drop something off for my DH. They have a 10mo old DS. DH went to say hi to the baby and he realized that the baby was only restrained (I use that term loosely) with the chest clip. (5pt harness seat)
He confronted his dad who said that he was just going down the street and laughed it off He really does live 2 minutes away, but are you kidding me? DH (a police officer) really gave him a hard time about it, but he just continued to shrug it off.
When their DS was 1st born, one day, I had to show him how snug the baby had to be in the seat. The straps were so loose, he might have just as well been not strapped in at all.
I never get into people's parenting styles, but how do I approach this?
I am hoping to take the CPS course next month (If my supervisor approves it ) so I could just offer a seat check...but what if I can't take the course?
