I don't think this is true.[/quote]

It is.  Worry-wart parents have just helicoptered so much about staying rear-facing and in a booster for as long as possible that the masses take it as true now.

One of DS friend's showed up to a boy scout trip with his booster.  He was 10 at the time.  A 15-passenger van full of 10-11 year-olds all with seat belts except one special snowflake. [/quote]

The image in my mind has me lol  :lol: [/quote]
No, the real funny thing is that he was probably the only scout properly belted.[/quote]

But kids don't wear seatbelts on schoolbuses so what's the difference? Honest question – not trying to be snarky or anything but at 10 years old I'm pretty sure you're OK without a seat booster  in a 15 passenger van .[/quote]

Those vans are the worst as they can tip over easier than a car and often don't have head rests so the head is not supported in a crash.  I'd want my kid in a HBB in one.[/quote]
