Hi,
It sounds like you bought the plastic rubber bands instead of the actual black rubber bands. The plastic ones are terrible. I've had the same experience you had. You have to buy the tiny black rubber bands.

For the person who wanted to know how to get her daughter to sit still, I started doing Maire-Kate's hair when she was about 1. I'd give her a treat, put on Teletubbies, and sit her between my legs so she couldn't wiggle away. She gradually got used to sitting. She's almost 7 now and rarely complains.

THERE ARE EIGHT DIFFERENT WAYS YOUR CHILD CAN DIE ON A CORDED WINDOW TREATMENT
Read "How Safe Cords Kill" at www.pfwbs.org

THREE CHILDREN HAVE STRANGLED TO DEATH SINCE ANGEL DIED ON 8/11/09.
Brandyn Coppedge died on 9/11/09. Rosie Smith died on 9/30/09 and Thapelo Kwofie died on 11/1/09. The Consumer Product Safety Commission is no longer recommending safety kits. They are now recommending that anywhere children live or visit should be free of corded window products.
