Few things are more intimidating to a new parent than buckling a baby into their car seat for the first time. Then you blink and that same child is pressuring you to retire the booster seat—or even sit in the front seat—to be more like their friends. Whether moving from rear-facing to front-facing, graduating from a booster seat to no seat, or moving from the backseat to the front seat, it’s often tempting to progress to the next phase of car passenger riding just a little early or just this once.
On this episode, we’re joined by two guests whose stories will give you confidence to stand your ground. Deanna Lundin was wrapping up a work day when four of her kids were passengers in a serious accident just around the corner from their home. April Dorsett is a pediatric nurse who leads the Safe Kids coalition in Athens and enjoys being a go-to child passenger safety resource for organizations throughout Georgia. By the end of the episode, you’ll have a newfound appreciation for child passenger safety laws and better understanding of how to access free resources to help you feel more confident about the choices you make for your family.
