This is a semi long post but I promise you it’s worth the minute read. I want to talk about the car shades with suction cups.

You should definitely not use them. When I was a baby I pulled a suction cup off of the window shade and it popped open in my mouth and covered my airway. My mom had to pull it out of my mouth because I was suffocating.

They haven’t taken them off the market because my mom called and told the company what happened and the woman on the phone said basically someone has to die for a recall to be made.

We have a car shade that does not have suction cups. They exist and it actually rolls up and down with the window. Pretty cool and significantly safer.

It’s terrifying but we all know babies and kids put everything in their mouth. Don’t let your baby be the reason why suction cup shades finally get recalled. Just don’t use them! 💖🤷🏼‍♀️
