If the shoe fits....
We have a carseat for every car in the family, so we never have to worry about anyone being so sorry they can't strap down a carseat....if you actually could get the kid in it without noticing the problem ....
And despite the inconvenience, when my live-in MIL jumped the curb with baby in the car, Nana was no longer permitted to drive her....ever.
Lol! You sound like a real peach.
Oh my your mother in law jumped the curb! Glad she didn’t wreck and kill your baby. I guess you didn’t forsee the consequences of your action letting your daughter ride with MIL, you wanton attempted murderer. :)
Btw, no one in our family is too sorry to strap a carseat. My husband’s hands and fingers are not small/nimble enough to be able to strap it tightly so he leaves it up to me to strap the carseats down. He learned after that to lay the carseat on it’s side when changing cars.
At that age my daughter was big enough to climb into her seat by herself and buckle herself into the harness. All I had to do was check to see that her harness was tight enough and not tangled. It did not occur to me that he had moved the carseat that morning. Oh wow, I’m human!
You are one judgemental son of a gun. I really pray your sactimonious attitude never comes back to haunt you one day. I hope you can learn some grace without a tragic lesson to teach it to you.
BTW, have you or your wife ever dealt with a newborn after pregnancy and childbirth? I noticed upthread that you said you brought a baby home from China. Usually Chinese adoptions are for older babies. Just wondering.
You seem to think that women should be at peak performance three months into motherhood. Sometimes it can take up for a year to fully recover from childbirth especially if the pregnancy or delivery are complicated.
You seem to demand perfection. That isn’t humanly possibly as demonstrated by your MIL story. You learned from your mistake and corrected as did my husband with the carseat incident. Fortunately, neither of our stories ended in a death.
