Just make sure you keep your windows rolled up when you allow your child to bounce around inside your car, so he doesn't injure me or mine when he flies through the air in that wreck.

I would not do that to my children, I always use the latest technology. But I do not need nor want the idiot state bureaucrats telling me what is best for my child. The only thing the legislators know is what is best for their next election and that is getting campaign funds from the booster seat lobby.

Of all the objections you could have to government intrusion on our lives, you choose one that makes more sense than many? What's that about?

Sorry if I don't have the confidence that you have in parents' judgement when it comes to keeping their kids safe. Without regulation, more children would die. According to the National Center for Statistics and Analysis, children are still dying while unrestrained. Imagine how much worse it would be if there weren't laws enforcing the use of restraints.
