New NC Car Seat Law - Does it Really Save Lives?
My Beef: New NC Law = Car Seats for Kids - Ages 4 - 8
Tell me if I'm wrong, but do booster seats really save lives for children between the ages of 4 - 8 over the traditional car seatbelt?
Or is this just another boost in income for the Car Seat Makers?
Mandating that these Booster Seats be purchased by parents in NC & maybe across the US bothers me because I don't see how raising a child a few inches will make a real difference in protecting them.
Because of this new law, I must purchase 3 more car seats for 3 children who were "previously no longer required" to use them.
