[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Look at your watch and give it a couple minutes. My kids are a little older then what you describe but I taught my son around 3 and my daughter picked up when she was older 2 how to get in their seats and buckle themselves. I put them in the car, close the door and then sit in the driver seat while they get buckled in. On days I’m rushed it’s horrible. But if I look at the clock and think, I can sit here for 4 minutes and play on my phone, they will get in and buckled in on their own time. But if I’m just telling them what to do, over and over it’s not happening. Also remember it’s just a season, it won’t last forever. Difficult while you are in it, but it will end. [/quote] We just went through this and I thought I was going to go insane. But what this poster suggested also helped keep me calm and we’ve now gotten through it. We also turned the seat around even though she’s just 2.5. I promise it’ll get better. [/quote]
