[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's not a new trend or trend at all. Safety experts have done testing and all agree 2 is the bare minimum to forward face. Some car seats are coming out that require you to rear face until 2 and if you live in one of the 48 states that are proper use it would be illegal to forward face before two in those Sears. Op your 3 year old can forward face but they still need a [b]5 point harness until age 6[/b]. The harmony defender is under $100 and will harness them and then turn into a booster. To the nanny that says their parents their rules works for some situations but safety is not one of them. If you're in an accident and the child is severely injured and killed the parents can sue you especially if they find out the child wasn't peoperly secured. Would you allow your charge to play with knives on your watch because the parents say it's ok, or jump off the top stair of multiple stairs? I'm guessing no. Now if the parents say no screen time on your watch them yes their rules or no chocolate. These aren't issues that could cost you thousands of dollars in lawsuits and possibly ruin your career[/quote] LOL. I see 100 kids a week in the preschool line hop out of cars, no 6 year old is in a 5point. Usually by 3 they are in a booster with a seatbelt.[/quote] You are an idiot. There are lots of 6 year olds in 5 point harnesses. Do some research and find out what's safe for your kids. Kids are killed in accidents when they are in booster seats too young that they could have survived being in a 5 point harness. A booster only positions the seatbelt, that's it. I don't understand parents who think this is so funny and no big deal to not keep your children as safe as possible in the car. [/quote]
