Today as I was pulling out of walmart I looked at the car parked in front of me and there was a Bucket installed forward facing with a little little one in it. I could not not say anything..
I said " Excuse me, Your child is so adorable, I just wanted to make sure you know that that seat is only to be used rearfacing.. That using it in that way is not safe for your son. That is a great seat but to work for him in a crash it needs to be installed rear facing. "
She got really really defensive.. I said in a calm voice. " I know that I am intruding and I don't mean to. I just don't want to see your son hurt. "
She calmed down and started talking about how long his legs were and hit the back and I told her that was not an issue and then told her she could call the local hospital for help with her seat..
I can not believe that they had a class around the corner until I was ready to take it.. ARG. I just need to get certified. Now.
