I looked after my friend's 4yr old last night. He was in bed asleep when she came to pick him up. She wrapped him up in his sleeping bag and put him on the back seat of the car lying down even though his car seat was there.
I am totally surprised at this as she is normally very safety conscious and I would trust her judgement in every situation. She had a half hour journey to get home and it was late and icy.
I didn't realise until they were driving off that he was on the back seat but the truth is I was probably too surprised to confront her about it anyway. I understand that it was her call but it really doesn't sit well with me.
