The only Arab and Indian parents (and other Asians) who take your advice are those who have visited or have had to visit the neurological hospital units in the region. And that's the happy ending.

The God Willing argument is old and tired. If you take your child for vaccinations or to the doctor when he has an ear ache - a car seat is a small investment. If he yells/screams/cries at least he is alive.

ETA it's not just Arab or Asian parents who are irresponsible, I've seen European/Western looking parents who are just as irresponsible with their most precious "possessions" children.
