Carseat photos on Facebook
Etiquette question here:
Is it ever okay to comment on someone's carseat usage because of a picture you saw posted on Facebook (or the Internet in general)? I don't necessarily mean publicly either. Like, if a picture is posted with loose, twisted straps, child not in properly, dangerous aftermarket accessories etc...would you say something to that person? Have you? Should you, or should you mind your own business? (Keeping in mind that a child could potentially be injured or worse as a consequence).

I wouldn't publicly say something, but I would definitely say something. I actually told a stranger the other night that her choice could be very dangerous, and asked if she wanted assistance. I gave her suggestions and left it that. What she chooses to do isn't my business, but I know I gave her all the knowledge I had and I hope she makes a better decision than her original one.
eta - I didn't just randomly tell them. They were asking about a particular booster seat, and I told her I could help with its use as we have one, then she told me the age of child she was putting in there.. I told her it would bs very dangerous and suggested some bigger seats with 5 point harnesses.
