05/15/2007 Archived Entry: "booster seats"

What business is it of theirs?

It's me, PSM. Hi.

My older child is outgrowing her required-by-law car seat. Now we have to buy her a required-by-law booster seat.

Malarkey, I say. I'm NOT saying it's a bad idea to put her in a booster seat. I'm NOT saying her safety isn't important to me. I AM saying, how in hell is that anyone's business but mine? God made her MY responsibility, not the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's, not the New Hampshire Department of Transportation's. MINE. Mine, mine, mine, mine, mine. My kids. My decisions. My responsibilities. My life. My car.

Okay, I know it doesn't have the moral weight of, say, the war in Iraq, or the excitement of a federal siege in Hardyville. This is just my perspective, the only perspective I can give.
