Can someone please link me (or just give me the info) on why it is not safe for a child to wear a bulky coat while in the car seat?
I belong to a parenting forum, and I'm explaining to them how to wear a winter coat properly (found a thread here about it), and some parents don't understand why they can't just wear the winter coat under the harness. I'm explaining that if they put the child in the car seat with regular clothes on, tighten the harness, take the child out of the harness without loosening it, then put the coat on the child and put them back in the car seat they will see how tight the harness NEEDS to be, but are unable to use the harness that tight because of a bulky coat in the way.
They are not getting why it's not safe... and I want to help them understand better.
So, can you help me?!
