[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My in-laws are visiting from overseas where seat belt use is not common. I am very strict about seat belts and DH has warned me that his FIL has never worn one and that in his culture it would be incredibly disrespectful to make him. I don't want to cause upset but I also don't my DC (9 and 13) riding in a vehicle with an restrained occupant.[/quote] Have your ever asked FIL to please buckle up? Start there. I have many times seen the dynamic between my husband and his mid eastern father where my husband is guessing and guessing at trying to uber-please his father when they visit here. And guess what, FIL is actually easy going. It's my husband that doesn't know how to communicate well with anybody. Cut the guesswork and ask your request:pls everyone buckle up, it's important and the law.[/quote]
