Why are carseats a touchy subject?

What is with the carseat question

And why do I feel like you are going to say "You don't know me!"



Here's to keeping it the family!

Ohhh I missed that carseat comment. Very interesting.

hmmmm.....do tell especially about the husband(s).

I need some interesting fodder to read today.

Welcome!
Why are carseats a touchy subject?

Well, I didn't want to get to this right away, because I was looking for a fun mom support group to take my mind off of it......

My 5 year old was paralyzed in a car accident a few months ago because her DUMB ASS father didn't have her in her booster seat. I've been overwhelmed with sadness. I know I should just be happy she is alive, and I am, but God I wish this didn't have to happen to her.

She still has full use of her arms and she didn't have a head injury, so she's still the same sweet child. I don't know what else to say about it. Just hangin in there . Would love to share some pics sometime if someone would tell me how to post them.

Anyway......let me take a breather and we'll get into the "keepin it in the family" gossip .

I am so sorry! How very hard for you and your DD! I am glad she is still with you and that you have such great spirit!

The carseat question is important, as you well know! Thanks for sharing.

Well wishes to you and your sweet girl

I'm so sorry your daughter and you are having to go through such an awful thing. Did your ex get into any trouble over it?

Yes, he lost his license because of the circumstances of the accident. Apparently he wasn't paying attention and smashed head on into an overpass on the highway at full speed.

DD had a seatbelt on, but because she wasn't in a booster, the seat belt fit across her chest in the wrong spot. Her spine snapped upon impact.

Witnesses said in the police report that he was driving erradically. *sigh* What an ass..........

Oh! How terrible! He should have gotten much more!

Enjoy the support fourms! Syber Moms has a rep for everyone being a bitch, that is true but, every bitch here has a big heart!

(Don't tell anyone!)

Welcome. I'm so sorry to hear about your daughter.

Welcome! I'm so sorry to hear your story and hope you find whatever it is you're looking for here.

Thanks everyone. I hope her story made someone out there buy a booster seat, or at least make sure the seats you have are the right ones.

What I am looking for is just some regular mom conversation! I don't want to talk about MRI's and stem cells and spinal cord injuries.

I want to dish the gossip, bash dh's complain about crabby toddlers--you know what I mean.

Hope to find that here .

My DS (also 5) does have a booster seat, but I did read your post outloud to his father. We are constantly arguing (I always win though) about DS's need to be in a booster seat and when I read that to him he actually teared up, finally something got through to him, he said he won't complain about transferring the booster anymore when he takes DS on a boy's day out "just up the road".

Tampucu, that seriously made me feel better. Thanks.

I am so sorry to hear about your daughter.
