I have a friend that is the mum of one of DS's kindy friends. She now has a 8 week old baby. I noticed when her baby was a couple of weeks old that her capsule was facing forward but gave her the benefit of the doubt and thought it might of got left like that when she took the baby out. A couple of weeks ago I saw that she actually was putting her newborn in the capsule forward facing. So I said something to her - I went with the 'you will get fined' route but threw in a bit about what happens to their neck in an accident. She said that it didn't fit in properly behind the drivers seat when rear facing so she had it forward until her DH moves the back seat back, but that she would get him to do it that day.

So, last week I saw that she still has the capsule facing forward (but she has added a blanket over the window so people can't see in easily). I have said something, she chose not to do anything. Is it any of my business or should I just butt out now? Or should I say something else? I would feel super awkward bringing it up again.

**In NZ a capsule is not required to have a base and is held in by the seatbelt. It is not installed as such as it is restrapped every time you put it back in.
