[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well, OP, I would put the giant puffy coat on my kid, but I'm afraid one of your cronies will then bitch me out for not knowing how dangerous it is to have a coat on my kid when he's strapped in his car seat.

Old, but IDC.

This is a good place for my anecdote-- kid is almost 2, like a furnace. We get picked up from Cold Midwestern Airport in January by my BIL (sent a car seat ahead). ~30 degrees-- so... cold, but not insane.

Given that Furnace DC would be out in the elements for literally less than a minute at a time, and we knew the car seat rules, and DC was dressed in two fleece layers, mittens, hat, etc., we didn't bother with wrestling the puffy coat. Airport door to heated car, maybe 20 seconds. Car to BIL/SIL's door, maybe 5-10 seconds.

SHOCKED FACES OMG IT'S COLD OUT THERE CALL CPS!!!!!!!

Yeah, well, you haven't had a kid in a car seat in 10+ years, and even made a comment specifically about "leaving room in the straps because I knew DC would be wearing a 'big coat.'"-- so I know you have no idea that there was a method to our madness. But that's cool, we're horribly neglectful parents.     [/quote]
