This ‘genius’ car seat hack may actually put your child more at risk
We all want our kids to be safe, and parents will do everything they can to plan for their kids’ well-being in any situation.  That’s why, when a local fire department shared a simple car seat hack, parents were quick to adopt and share it.
The hack, which was originally posted on Facebook by the Rose City Area Fire Department, involves writing down your child’s medical information and emergency contact, and taping it to their car seat in case you are in an accident and are unconscious when first responders arrive. While the fire department’s post only has a meagre number of shares, one mom who saw it posted a screenshot to Twitter where it was retweeted 6,000 times and got more than 10,000 likes.

Sounds like a brilliant idea right" Two minutes spent writing out the relevant information seems like a small price to pay for the peace of mind you’ll have knowing paramedics would have all the info they need to take care of your child. However, there’s one problem with this plan: Tape can actually damage a car seat.
