		detaro on April 20, 2022 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Forgetting a Child in a Car Is a Horrifying Mistak... backwards-facing car seats for small children are way worse if an airbag triggers, because the airbag basically directly hits it and fires the seat backwards. They should only ever be used if the airbag is deactivated.
