The best place to buy growth pads for children is on Taobao. You can throw them away when you are done or put them in your luggage. We did this several times when we went to Europe before. Whether you use them or not depends on your understanding of overall safety. Bringing them from home saves you the trouble and money, and there are almost no police officers who actively check. The key is whether you will encounter random checks. If you have growth pads, there should be no problem. We didn't encounter mandatory enforcement by the car company ? Australia Q&A
