Can someone explain this to me?

Can anyone explain why it just took me  an hour trying to explain to SIL that she could not pick DD up with out her "thingy" (her words for car base). I tried to explain that it is not safe to just strap her in. Then she followed up with "well Bill (her husband) will be home soon, what if I just hold her carrier?" WTH?? IT"S NOT SAFE, besides ILLEGAL! I don't think I should have to explain to a 32 y/o woman this. Grr, it makes me so mad at how dumb some people can be. I dont understand her logic behind it. If the car seat isn't meant to be held in with seat belts, and only a car base, you need the base! grr..sorry, i'm so frustrated, that took way longer than it should have. USe your head woman! YOu're not putting my sweet angel in harms way because you were "really looking foward to babysitting." When I told you to get the base out of your parents car, you should have. Problem eliminated, you would be babysitting.
