Yung kapatid kong 5 years old kahit sa 3rd row ng Pajero ko nakasakay, naka-seatbelt pa din.

Yup, always use car seats. I was going to post a topic like this pero meron na pala.

I saw this white E46 Bimmer being driven by a yuppie-looking dad near our village. And behind him was his son. STICKING HALF HIS BODY OUT THE WINDOW! Grrr... sobrang naasar talaga ko...

TIP
keep him busy while seated at the carseat, nagkalat lahat ng toys, cereals, books nung tine-training namin si kOdy, pero ngayon ok na. laking ginhawa talaga ang carseat,

yung nabili kong carseat, doubles as a booster seat so pwede pa kahit 5 years old yung anak ko. eto pic ng carseat

Kunyari pa si kimpOy na kay Kody yung mga coloring books at toys sa likod.

Pero duda ko, yun ang mga libangan ni kim habang nasa store siya. hehehehe.

he..he

but seriously, i can now drive with kody in tow, basta nasa carseat lang siya ayos na, i can do more errands maski kasama ko siya, siyempre nasa likod siya,

carseats are highly recomended sa states nga hindi mo pwedeng isakay ang baby sa car kung wala kang car seat

i cannot agree more with kimpoy - even seatbelts are not safe enough for kids, because they are only rated for people with a minimum height and body mass. kaya dito sa US, bawal ang batang hindi naka-car seat below a certain age and weight.

USE YOUR BELTS...and seriously consider buying a car seat for kids under 8.

my son has been trained from day 1 to always buckle himself in - it is not even an option or a source of discussion, and it is so second nature for him he never complains.

BACKSEAT OR FRONT SEAT, YOUR KIDS WILL DIE IN A CRASH IF THEY ARE NOT SECURELY BELTED IN. i'm sorry if i sound harsh, but i don't want any of you to lose the most important thing in the world to you

i myself have lost 2 cousins in a car crash who weren't wearing their belts when they crashed.
