aimforoutlastlife i think theres a rule for kids safety, as i have seen many parents practising this thing in Qatar. People have been very harsh with you, dont worry, only u have to do is buy a baby car seat that is a seat which is portable and u dont need to sit at back with ur baby. and if ur kids are more than 3, or 5, u can put baby locks in ur car... that will help u alot.
