Since I am a foster mom, I get new kids alot. I only take 2 at a time, and my 2 year old will be leaving on Friday to Grandmas. So I should get a child shortly after that. I only take 1-3 (for now- soon to be 0-3). They DO call me and say '"We have Bobby here and he is 2 years old... etc." But you, or they, have no idea what they actually weigh and stuff.
Sometimes they will drop the child off at my house, but most of the time I will go to the DHS building and pick up the child. (so far 2/3) Should I install the seat RF or FF when I go to pick them up? Obviously I will be able to tell if they can RF by height.. but should I bring my scale and weigh them by my car before I put them in the car? Then reinstall it based on that? When I picked up M, I had his seat FF, and then later at home I switched it to RF when I knew his weight and everything.
What do you ladies think I should do?
