So I was watching this show on MTV called "True Life, I'm a single parent" anyways...there was a mom on there with a baby (I think she was 9 months). Well they showed her driving with the baby and she had the baby FORWARD FACING!!! She was in an infant carrier and only strapped in with the belt. That was the only thing holding the baby in! Not to mention the whole forward facing thing....seriously ALL parents should have to take a carseat safety class before leaving the hospital!!!

What's even more great about that is that these teenage girls are seeing it and thinking that that's the norm. It's sad what they think they are learning from TV :(

whats sad is that anyone smart enough to use google should know that a baby that young shouldn't be forward facing... but people don't get off facebook and twitter
