Today, while driving home, I looked in the rear-view mirror and saw that my three-year-old daughter had managed to get out of her seat and had crawled to the back window. I pulled over and strapped her in again. Five minutes later she was back at the window. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I put my phone on top the car while putting my daughter in her car seat. Told myself not to forget it. Then I drove away, and it flew off the top of the car on the freeway. It got ran over. FML
Today, I completely lost it when I found out my mom was driving around with my 20-month-old daughter not sat in a car seat. She told me I was overreacting, and that everything was fine since she “prayed for a safe journey.” FML
Today, I went to pick up my goddaughter while her mother went to work. She was being fussy, and I was surprised when she was quiet in the car; I just figured she'd fallen asleep. I got to my house and realized I'd never put her in my car, she was still sitting in my friend's driveway. FML
Today, while driving with my puppy in the passenger seat, he jumped out of the window. FML
Today, I picked up my daughter from daycare. As we were getting into the car, I strapped her into the car seat, but something felt off. I looked back and realized I had picked up the wrong kid. In my defense, she was wearing the same jacket as my daughter. FML
Today, I picked up my 4-year-old daughter from day care. As we're driving home, a butterfly lands on the windshield. Just as my daughter comments on how pretty the butterfly is, I turned a corner and accidentally hit the windshield wipers and smeared the pretty butterfly across the windshield. FML
Today, while driving home, my 3-year-old daughter told me she had to poop. I told her that she would have to wait until we got home. When we got home, she pulled down her pants and shat on the floor, because, "I'm home now." FML
Today, I dined and dashed. Upon reaching my car, I realized I had left my seven year-old daughter in the restaurant. FML
Today, my kid threw a fit on our way home, wanting me to stop and call grandma. Why? Because she was convinced I was going to wreck the car, and grandma is a good driver who won't crash. When we got home, she stopped fussing, said, "Thank god, we're home," ran up to grandpa and said, "Mom's a scary driver." She's 3. FML
Today, I realized that my five-year-old daughters are deranged psychopaths, when one of them started screaming to get my attention while the other pulled the car door shut on my fingers. FML

Super Nanny doesn't know shit. That show is a big ******* lie. Just like any other reality show.

you're either strapping her in wrong or using a booster sear too early, she should not be able to get out of the carseat.

booster seat*

My daughter can buckle her car seat. Every time she tries to unbuckle it I distract her. But I'm fairly certain she could do it if she put her mind to it. And she's one and a half.

my son can buckle his car seat too, but he can't unbuckle it. no kid should be able to, that's why the buckles are hard to get open, which is why i said the kids in the seat wrong.

and my son is quite strong, but i don't think he could get it unbuckled. and i'm talking about both buckles, not just the buckle at the armpit.

not true. a lot of children who are strapped in correctly can unbuckle themselves. and if she is in a booster already, then yeah, that's a problem.

i find it very hard to believe that 'a lot' of children can unbuckle themselves even when strapped in correctly. car seats are made to keep childten safe, and pretty sure they do a lot of testing to make sure the kid cannot get out of the car seat. so in my opinion, this kid wasn't strapped in correctly.

Invest in strait jackets.

Discipline your kid.

Or how about correctly fasten the child into the seat.
