[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My in-laws are coming to visit from the Middle East with two children, 4 and 7, and I have insisted on buying proper car seats for them as NO ONE wears seat belts there and they definitely won't have child seats.[b] I normally check seat belts before DH drives off[/b] and he agrees the kids need to be buckled but he asked me not to insist his brother be strapped in! He says it would be very disrespectful. Can I maybe mention to my SIL that I would like everyone to wear theirs and she could tell him?[/quote] So you can't even get your [b]husband[/b] to comply with the law....[/quote] OP: He [b]always[/b] wears his seat belt, but I still check him and every passenger to [b]make sure[/b] they're buckled in. And he knows I do this which is why he told me not to call out his brother for not being properly restrained.[/quote] Weird, that you feel the need to mother your husband-my husband would find this very condescending, controlling and disrepectful. Not to mention you underrmine your children's perception of him...how unhealthy.[/quote]
