In 2002 my sister-in-law and her 2 year old girl died in a car accident. My niece was not in a car seat and possibly would have survived if she was. I’m sure everyone has a similar story.
Hence, my promise to myself was that my children will not sit in a car without car seats. I have stuck to this rule and because we are consistent with this Daniel doesn’t know anything else.
Which brings me to all those IDIOTS that have little ones jumping up and down in cars with open windows. (No kidding, seen this morning driving out of Kenridge.) I even saw someone with a little boy on the N1 in the fast lane the other day on the front seat, not strapped in and also with the window down.
What are people thinking? I feel like a screeching banshee when I see kids flailing around cars, do people not know how dangerous this is?? Maybe I need to go on a vigilante mission and start hooting at people??
Any comments?
