A "what would you do?" question
Hi there - I posted an intro in the coffee break. I hope it's OK if I jump in here now with a question from a very green CPS tech to much more experienced ones?
I moved my daughter out of her Roundabout in early November, when her checkup at the pediatrician revealed she was 40 lbs. (I hate those doctor's scales!) She's 3 1/2 years old and very mature for her age, helped along by two older brothers, I suppose.
She and her 5 1/2-year-old brother are now in Graco Turbo boosters. My son previously had been riding in a Britax Cruiser, but honestly I've never liked it. The seat belt guide on the shoulder always held slack and I've had problems with the adjustable neck support, too. So I did what I thought was good homework and bought them both the Turbo boosters.
They love their seats and have no trouble sitting in them properly. But ... knowledge is a dangerous thing. Since I finished the CPS class, I can't help but think that they should instead be in a 5-point harness.
Are they fine in the Turbo Booster, or should I trust my gut? My husband may roll his eyes at me if I bring up the subject of buying two Huskies (or whatever else is suggested.)
Thanks in advance!
