Do they then expect nothing less than perfection from you? OR is that just my dad?
He knows my kids are still in harnesses, and argued with me about it one time. He figures if something (shield boosters) are on the market then they're safe.
On Thanksgiving, my uncle asked us if we had a dvd player in the van and dh mentioned our tiny one. We used to have a HUGE one. Like, not one of the small laptop style ones, but like a small TV for a bedroom version, a big cube basically, that had a car adapter. But when I realized what a horrific projectile that thing was, I stopped using it. So anyway, Dh explained about that, because my dad had asked where it was.
So then the next day at my parents' house, my dad noticed that one of my tires was low. So he says, "Kelly, you talk so much about safety, but have you ever seen a blowout on the interstate? Those tires are very unsafe!"
I do usually keep an eye on them, and of course understand that the whole package is important - carseats properly installed, limited projectiles, well maintained vechicle. but good grief, I make ONE tiny mistake that my dad the mechanic notices, and he makes it out like I'm a huge hypocrite! Ugh!
