A toddler (who shall remain nameless) of a Virginia Gay employee is still struggling to learn the basics of bladder control – like not getting in the car for a long ride after refusing to visit the bathroom first. He had an “accident” in the car seat which led to its disassembly in an effort to clean the fabric.

Imagine the surprise at discovering that the part of a strap normally hidden from view was badly frayed and actually cut on one place. Do you and your family a big favor and periodically inspect the straps in your child’s car seat, especially in places that are hard to see.
