Let's go to the store this weekend to buy a car seat for the baby.
行啊，不过我看也有很多人是不买的，让孩子坐后排，大人抱抱好就行了。

Okay. But I've seen that a lot of people don't buy them. Having their kids sit in the back seat with an adult holding on to them is fine.
这个必须有！在很多国家，儿童不坐安全座椅是违法的。

We have to have one! In many countries, it's illegal for children not to ride in a car seat.
你说买就买呗。你想好买什么牌子了吗？
