My K student is riding the bus... but the bus only has lap belts. Should I drive her? Complicating factor - the school is only 3 miles away and I wouldn't mind driving her or having my husband drive her, and I wouldn't even mind if she was on the bus for those 3 miles, however she gets on and the bus goes to pick up all the other kids, on a treacherous county route that I'm not comfortable with her in a lap belt.
I feel she's better off without the belt than she is WITH the belt but I can't get anyone to hear me. It would be much more convenient for her to be on the bus for the afternoon pickup part (which I think is a direct route)
WWYD? Should I let her go home on the bus but let my husband drop her off in the mornings? Or is the belt okay even though it's NOT okay in a car?
She's 5 and about 43 lbs and 40" tall. In my car she sits in a convertible still and in my husband's car I bought her a booster.
