I'm in a similar situation. My boss has both kids in boosters with no harness, just the car seat belt. They are four and a small two year old. The youngest is way to small and when I brought it up she just shrugged it off. In fact she wants me to give the 2 year old in a booster in my car.

I want to say no but.. Older kid was in a booster before age 4, and dad has used the booster with younger kid before too. Neither kid was ever in a booster with a back. They wanted to give me the booster with no back for my car but I wouldn't do it and spent $15 for one with a back. Also, I make older kid have the seat strap in front of her chest when I'm driving.

Yes I'd appreciate you for telling me.

Yes, say something. Perhaps phrase it as "you know, I was just reading in a magazine the other day how kids can get pretty hurt if they are in boosters too young". It will be a tough conversation but the details you shared indicate it is virtually as dangerous as not having them in anything at all so you as an adult need to take a risk on behalf of the kids' lives.

My charges are 3 and 5.The 3 year old in MBs car has a convertible car seat and 5 year old has a backless booster.I had the 5 year old with me the other day and was meeting MB so I could get 3 year old, and she drives up with 3 year old in the backless booster.Not only this,but with the chest strap behind her back.She is a VERY young and small 3 year old and I almost had a heart attack but didn't say anything about it.Should I bring it up? She does this pretty often when she only has the 3 year old and lets the 5 year old sit with the strap behind his back too. It just freaks me out.
