Mother panics after confusing Cinderella car seat with forgotten daughter in vehicle (Freepik)
An anonymous mother shared on Reddit a terrifying incident where she thought she left her daughter trapped in a hot car, but in reality, she had confused it with a Disney car seat design.
The seat, which costs around $249.99, features an image of Cinderella with her head stuck to the headrest and her arms along the armrests, which made the mother believe her daughter was alone in the back seat. She was so scared that she described the moment as almost having a heart attack.
The post generated reactions from thousands of Reddit users, who shared their opinions on the seat. Many thought the design was indeed very disturbing, with one user even saying it looked like a car seat that was too scary, while others joked about the impact it might have on anyone who saw the “child” inside the car.
Some also expressed concerns about the seat’s safety, particularly about the positioning of the straps and headrest, which did not seem suitable for a child’s size.
Others questioned why the mother chose to buy a seat with such a strange design, since the position of the straps appeared to be set for a larger child, which could pose safety risks.
Finally, the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that children remain in rear-facing car seats until they reach the recommended weight or height limit.
