[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Mine RF until they hit the weight limit of their Marathons at around 3.  We did this because it was the safest thing to do.  A broken leg can be fixed, a broken neck cannot.  That simple.[/b]

I have never said that. I am not the poster you quoted earlier and they did not say that either. She has pointed out that the data shows rear facing is safer in the majority of car accidents. She never said it was a guarantee and she certainly never wished ill will upon your child. Also, FWIW, our ped even said at my daugthers 18 months visit, "We are much better at fixing legs than we are necks." I think everyone mentions legs because that is the reasoning often cited by those who turn the carseat at a year. [/quote]

This quote was my issue - maybe if you / she/ he had seen the grief and loss that my friends went through when their baby who was [b]RF[/b] died in a car accident, you wouldn't see it as "That Simple". Is RF safer - yes, I have never said it wasn't. Does it mean that it is "that simple" that you will just have to deal with a broken leg as the poster I quoted says - no it really doesn't.
