notice the 6-8 year old in the middle

not only is he booster size and in a position without a headrest, they seem to have used the second row seatbelt for the third row bench.

Little kids in adult belts I've seen (and is bad enough), but how do you manage to use the wrong seatbelt???

Wow, this pic was used as a misuse pic at a CEU event presentation I attended a few weeks ago!

There is one published monthly in my Working Mother magazine for Sonic touting the "healthiness" of their kids's meals.

All three kids belong in a booster and the middle child has only the shoulder-belt of the seatbelt fastened - not the lapbelt.

I've tried to find it and post on here - but no luck.

It's the back cover of Parents mag February issue.

I would say write them. That is pretty bad!

Ironically, I just got my new edition of Parents today. They had a great write-up on carseats and right behind the final page of the car seat article was that same Sonic ad that Pixel posted.

I am going to write them now. It is unacceptable for them to take advertising that shows such bad practices.
