[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, they are mostly all in high back boosters, some in backless boosters. At 5 or 6, a 5 point harness isn't safer than a high back booster anyway.[/quote] I disagree. Did you see the story about the 5 year old who was in a car seat, but was killed on 66 last week. My K sits in either a Boulevard or Pioneer. He prefers the Boulevard. [/quote] Everything depends on proper usage. Just because a child uses a 5 pt does not mean they are safer if it is not installed properly and the harnesses and clips are not properly placed on the child. If the straps are loose and falling off, they will do nothing to protect the child. Same with the a booster. It can be just as safe as a 5 pt. But it depends on the child. Can you trust that they will sit properly and not squirm around, let the strap fall of their shoulder, put it under their arm, etc. If you are confident they can, than a booster may be ok. [/quote]
