I'm new to here, so I'm not sure if this is the right place...
but
I am a nanny for two little boys (3, 5) and they are both currently in booster seats. The 5 yr old has been in one since he was 3 and the 3 yr old has been in one since he was 2.5. The parents got rid of their car seats because it was "easier to get them in the car" with boosters...
I am TOTALLY against having them illegal in the boosters. We live in Washington so the booster law is 4 and 40lbs, 40inches...they both are over 40 lbs, and 40 inches now but they weren't when they were put into boosters. When they ride in my car, they are harnessed.
I'm just wondering how I can bring up the conversation to their parents in a non-judgmental or accusatory way to tell them or give them facts about the dangers of having them in booster seats. I'm very close to the mom so I know she will honor anything I say and she is very respectful. I love these boys (been with them for almost 4 yrs) and I don't want anything bad to happen to them, but I feel like their parents are a little dismissive just because of convenience.
How can I talk to them about getting these guys harnessed?
Any articles or personal experience would help! Thanks!
