Being a bright little guy, he'll soon figure out that you have put up with the car ride and being strapped in to get to the good stuff. Most little kids his age, and older even, don't like being strapped in. We had to actually spank our older girl to get her not to unbuckle her harness when she was in her car seat. And she even liked riding in the car, just not being buckled in. Only took the once, she's a bright girl too. :) (Es la madre de la Senorita Victoria y un abogata en Austin)
