So anyone else have a 3 year old and issues with them keeping their car seat straps on right?…
So anyone else have a 3 year old and issues with them keeping their car seat straps on right? Because I do 🤦🏼♀️ I live on a military base and I been yelled at multiple times and I’m told If I put it on right in the first place he wouldn’t do that...but I 100% do and he still does and I’m constantly pulling over and fixing it! But I can’t always stop and turn around to check on him when I’m driving....I told him multiple times that he could get a huge ouchy if he doesn’t leave it on right...I taken his tablet away and his toys and nothing is working! I even tried positive reinforcement and made it into a game! Like gets a reward for leaving it on right, and a game like let’s see how long you can leave it on for and if you win you get a prize...I don’t know what to do I hate going anywhere because I fear the worst 😭😭

Wow he must be super smart. My daughter is almost 5 and just learning to undo her chest harness and can't release the bottom yet.
Now idk how desperate you are but they do make devices that reinforce the clip so the child can't get it undone...I would never use one though in case of an emergency but maybe this is best for you.

I didn't know that. I could have used that for my son

@paigerue2013 maybe you can try it. Once he's used to not being able to get out take it off and hopefully he won't go back to taking it off since he'll be used to not being able to get out.

@scidg3, I’m hoping I can figure something out I am tired of getting yelled at and I will literally check before even heading to the gate it happens in like a split second lol

What if they tell him and have them explain it to him!

@scidg3, that I haven’t tried! Maybe a different person, especially in uniform, can help him understand!

My daughter doesnt try anything thank God when i havent turned the car off or parked or anything. But she trys to put it on herself and take it off when she geta out. But if your kid is 3 maybe time outs and a small explanation on how important it is to keep the car seat how you put it and that they need to listen.
