Subject: If you have a 5-7yo kid, what do you do about car seats/taxis when traveling?

COuldn't fathom putting a sh-t covered baby into the stroller in the hot sun for an hour+ walk back to the airbnb. We ended up taking a cab and running in to get money to pay the driver when we got there. It was a 15 min ride, but I still feel incredibly guilty about it 10 years later!
ok that’s just weird. And don’t tell people that in real life bc they will think you are an idiot.

Yes bc the seat belt will save their life.
Whereas the booster seat will do nothing.
The booster seat is worthless without the seatbelt. The seat belt is what saves a life not the booster seat.
You do realize that a booster seat is meant to be used with the seat belt. It brings the child up to the level where the seat belt is most effective.
