[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son is 9 and I don't require other people to use a booster for him if they are driving him in town (ex. school to sports activity close by). Same thing I don't make his 9 and 10 year old friends use a booster but if a parent drops one off for their kid I will use it. I do make 8 year olds use a booster. Risk is relative. [b]I remember riding in the back of station wagons without being belted all through elementary school. Cars are now safer and everyone uses seatbelts with a shoulder strap.[/b] [/quote] That old BS again? 1. There were MUCH fewer cars on the road when you were little. Less risk of accidents compared to now. 2. Deadly accidents still happened, but not to you - you have Survivoritis: "I turned out fine, so let's keep everything the way it was!" Think, PP. If things were safe when you were little, why did they change the laws? Because there were too many deaths. [/quote]
