Captain's Blog, Supplemental

By the way, that's a Star Trek reference, Mom.

Thumper's bath seat is convertible from reclining to upright. He just had his first upright bath Sunday night. To use it in the upright position, one hooks a "safety arm" over the edge of the big bath tub, known as the "family tub" in the instructions, and then the infant tub attaches to the safety arm. The safety arm keeps a tight hold on the family tub by means of of some pretty stiff springs. Thus, the WARNING message stuck to the safety arm:

"WARNING: Children have drowned when left unattended in bath seats. ALWAYS keep children within arm's reach. NEVER use bath seat without safety arm. NOTE: The tension you feel is normal and will ensure safety arm is firmly attached to family tub."

Personally, I think for parents today, "the tension you feel is normal" considering that you are constantly reminded of the DANGER to which you expose your CHILDREN through the improper use of a vast array of SAFETY equipment.

This made me guffaw. "The tension you feel is normal." Good call, Rodius.
