DH is a jackass-car seats

So he installed them about a week ago. I keep bugging him to look into getting them checked, quote the "70% of people do it wrong" blah blah. I gave him a week to look into it, and now his time is up! He says there could be no other way they could go in. Fine, he is an engineer so he feels he can do no wrong, they are probably fine but I just want to know! His stupid ego, get over it, get it checked, its about the safety of your Daughter, my DARLING HUSBAND!!

Re: DH is a jackass-car seats

  • Did you guys take a childbirth class by any chance? I know that my  DH didn't really get the whole car seat safety problem until our class, although I would tell him the statistics. We had a local cop come in and talk about it and check our seats if we wanted. You wouldn't believe the amount of questions the men in our class had. After our class my DH kept saying he couldn't believe that so many car seats are improperly installed. Sometimes hearing from someone else other than their Wives/SO helps. Maybe drag him down to the local firestation or police station and let him hear it from them when they check it.
  • Ummm yeah DH is also an engineer in the Army and installed ours incorrectly.... just saying.  You can take it yourself to get it done.

  • Next time you are out, just swing by the fire station, they will check it out for you at no charge.

  • Just an FYI, not all fire stations do it. When I called our local FD their response was "Mam, you know this is a fire station, we don't do those sort of things". I had to take mine to our highway patrol station.

  • Drive your car to a fire station on their designated day and they will install it properly.  I skip right over my DH's ego everytime.
