You think that now, but I'm betting you won't be singing that tune the first time someone slams the side of your car and your kid gets killed because he/she wasn't in a car seat.

Yeah, that's going to happen. The streets of Spring Lake are practically littered with baby corpses from all the horrific traffic accidents.
People are always so sure "It could happen to me!" and then when it never does they realize that they were worried for nothing. |

You're the poster boy for safety and wisdom, Joe.

Some of us word our posts to be more popular in the community. Some word our posts to aggrevate the community. Some like to shock and awe the community, and others shoot for a laugh. We all make our points. Some agree and some don't. Me, I like to gross people out with Pug stories.. Did I mention the time the Pug ate a piece of ribbon at Christmas? Know how we found out? There was this little string thing hanging out her butt. Now who wants to pull that out! We used to have the "pull the string" booth at the carnival, but Pugs take it to a new level! |

Statically speaking, the majority of car crashes happen near the home, not 50 miles away on vacation. In other words your more likely to get your child killed in the 5 blocks between your home and the pool than you would on I-20 headed to Dallas.
Furthermore over 240,000 children under the age of 16 are injured in car accidents every year and another 1,700 are killed. and guess what joe: Most accidents involving kids actually occur on local, residential roads during a routine trip to the day-care center, the grocery store, or the neighborhood park. That's why it's critical to take all the same precautions for a short drive that you'd take for a three-hour ride to Grandma's. |

You line of reasoning is childish at best. I'd suggest that any of you who know this man in real life contact child services immediately. You're not just being stupid and endangering the life of your child, joe, if he/she is under the age of 6 and 60 pounds, you're breaking the law too, probably with full knowledge of your actions and willfull intent to boot... |

Somehow I don't think he is getting the point Isaac. The only way he will get this is when he has to slam on the brakes driving home from that pool and his daughter ends up hurt. God forbid it never happens, but I think some people (and he must be one of them) only learn the hard way unfortunately.

I speed, too. I also order products over the Internet and don't report them to the state so I can pay sales/use tax on them. Sometimes if I am in a hurry I will park in a handicapped spot. I am a CRIMINAL!!! >Statically speaking, the majority of car crashes happen near the home, not 50 miles away on vacation. In other words your more likely to get your child killed in the 5 blocks between your home and the pool than you would on I-20 headed to Dallas. 1. It's "you're" 2. That is not what that means. That means that more accidents happen w/i 5 miles of home. It says nothing about the relative danger of driving near home vs. driving far from home unless you also have statistics about the amount of total driving done in those same distances. If 50% of accidents occur w/i 10 miles of home but 75% of driving is done there, then it is actually safer. |

If any of you call child services please record the call. I want to hear how that goes.
"This guy on the Internet said he let his kid ride in his mom's lap for 5 blocks!" "The SWAT team has been dispatched. He will be brought to justice." |

I really think this thread has run awry. I don't think anyone is not suggesting taking the precautions to keep our kids safe. If someone does their job 499,000 out of 500,000 times, that is reasonable. If safety if truely the number one concern, then it is best never to leave your house. After all, most car accidents occur outdoors and not inside your home. Even then, there are a few exceptions of people getting hit by a car while sitting in their living room. |
