So, my DD is 2 years old, RFing in an EFTA. She loves it in general. Jumps right in, starts blabbering about seatbelts and being safe and all that (CPST in training!). BUT, all of a sudden, she freaks out like no tomorrow. I mean, she RARELY freaks out like this. I try to put her in her seat, and she starts SCREAMING to the point where my ears pop, she twists and writhes and I can hardly get her strapped in. And god help me when we're trying to run errands! Granted, she is fine after the car gets going a minute, but I don't understand.
Well, I guess I KIND of do, lol. The problem I think is that she wants to sit in the front seat! She gets up there when we're not driving, and wants me to put the seat belt on her and she says "let's go broom broom". She'll even happily sit NEXT to her car seat, but not in it.
Ugh. It is SOOOO frustrating, cause it's also very embarassing in public cause people prolly think I'm beating my kid in my car or something, she screams that bad.
Ya, so what do I do? I do NOT want to turn her FF of course, but I have no idea why ALL OF A SUDDEN it's such a hug deal. I mean. she's always liked to play in the front seat, but she understood that "June rides in her car seat so she can be safe".
Where's that *bangs head on wall* icon when you need it?
