thought of a potentially useful safety feature for high chairs when Jack started choking (swallow the food before putting more in your mouth, honey) last week.
a emergency safety strap release on the back of the high chair.
i'm pretty darn calm in a crisis usually (how many trauma alerts have I been to?) but I was panicking a little trying to get the 5 point harness undone and get his flailing arms through the straps to get him out. luckily he coughed it out on his own, but it was a little scary.
