[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 23757, member: 84"] Shari I was a carseat fanatic. I still am. I was using them long before the laws were in place. I refused to take my kids anywhere unless they were in their seats. Like someone else mentioned, I'd worked in a hospital and saw the results of unrestrained kids in accidents. And I had Houdini himself in T. He was escaping his carseat by 8mos old. It got so bad when he was around 12-18 mos that I had to not only buckle him into the seat, but wrap the seat belt over the car seat, and tie him into the thing using the straps of his child harness (chest harness with straps used for walking) just to keep him in it. Then had to worry how I'd manage to get him OUT if we were in an accident and had to vacate the car fast. [img]:faint:[/img] Long before he was 2 not even all that worked. T never screamed or fussed about his carseat. Never. He just simply wouldn't stay in it, no matter what you did. [img]:hammer:[/img] Right around his second birthday easy child was finally old enough to progress out of a carseat. I told T he could have hers IF he wouldn't get out of it. For reasons unknown, it worked. Never had anymore problems while driving. Good thing cuz there was no way to keep him in by then. As soon as we got to where we were going he'd be out of the thing faster than I could turn the car off. I dunno, but it might have been because it was just a booster seat. Nothing came across his shoulders to make him feel tied down. Once he outgrew the carseat I never had a bit of trouble with seatbelts. He still wears it. lol Go figure. Now with the new laws, N would have had to be in one til she got pregnant with Aubrey at 16! Oh, yeah I could see that happening. NOT! She wouldn't have met the weight requirement. Sheesh. Do the best you can and don't worry about it. It's all you can do anyway. (((hugs))) [/QUOTE]
