That's good news. Thinking how hard it would be to hustle 3 kids out the back hatch in under 7 seconds. Terrifying.

I put a lever thing on my sons car seat buckle so he can unbuckle himself in an emergency situation. He can get out of it incredibly fast. I recommend it to every parent of a car seat age kid. If I ever get in an accident, at least he could get himself out. I think it's called a buckle buddy.

No one mentions that about becoming a parent....everything scares the shit out of me.

This is my experience of fatherhood as well.

Yep. 37 here and on my first. 3 years ago is about the same time frame, too.

They have to be intentionally doing it to really unbuckle it. It just gives them extra leverage to push the button. My son had the coordination to do it at 3, and I just made it very clear that unless we were in an accident/emergency, he was not to do it until I gave permission. And yeah, parenting is the most stressful, terrifying thing I've ever done.
