I don't see the harm in just having one around. It isn't like it'll hurt anything sitting in your closet.
We dont have room in a closet. Why waste space on something we wont use?
It feels like you want to argue just for the sake of arguing. I can't imagine being so bitter and resentful over something as minor as someone wanting to BUY my child a car seat. Is it hot there? Maybe you should go inside and chill out.

How will they know if someone walked around the corner and got in a car?

Well they know our address. They have programs to get carseats so I dont think anyone would resort to that if they were truly in need

The hospital I work at won’t let moms leave without a car seat, even if it’s on public transit. If they don’t have one they will give Mom one. Mom must carry baby out in it. A lot like moms can’t walk out of the hospital they’re rolled out in a wheel chair.
So I would definitely double check, and maybe instead of an infant seat get a convertible seat which can be used from Newborn to toddler.

Here they only check if you are leaving in a car. I had no problem with my first 3 kids.

So you never ever ride in a car, taxi or Uber? What about when your on public transportation? You just plan to hold your baby the whole time?

I ride in taxis sometimes for work but not with my kids. You dont need carseats for any of the public transportation here. Although I mostly walk or take the bus

The hospital will let you walk? Both hospitals I delivered at had some requirements before you could go, a car seat was one of them.
