[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is true. It’s a safety program.  They don’t want people to say that they don’t need a car seat because they don’t have a car and then get in a friend’s car, or a taxi, or an Uber with an unrestrained baby. It’s the only moment that the authorities can try to ensure that each baby has access to a car seat.  If you can’t afford a car seat, talk to the hospital about them giving you one.   If you really don’t want to own a car seat to use even in the case of an emergency, borrow one from a friend to leave the hospital.  [/quote]

Haha.  And then will the “authorities” come and inspect your car seat every few months for you to make sure it is appropriately sized?  Will they ensure kids have access to healthy food and a clean living environment?

I don’t doubt you that this is indeed a requirement, but it’s actually a perfect example of government overreach, IMO.  I don’t have a car —&gt; I don’t need a car seat.  And this country clearly doesn’t give a damn about kids.  This is probably some kickback to car seat manufacturers...[/quote]
It is massive government overreach. I get that it is for the safety of babies, but this type of overreach is wrong.[/quote]

I'm okay with the car seat check but the fact that another previous poster said that the nurse was checking for the right temperature from the air conditioner is unacceptable.[/quote]
