    For Fun

    My small 6yr old was messing around and sat in her sisters seat. Sockingly she is only about 3-4in too tall (which she just went through a huge growth spurt sprouting up 3in in 6wks) and she is 41lbs. I bet she could fit perfectly fine in a radian. Too bad her sister isnt so small. lol Sent...

    Why

    In swedish seats they dont follow the 1" rule? I tried to google it but came up with nothing. I know they are built different just not exactly what difference makes the be able to sit so up right and not follow the 1" rule? Sent from my iPhone using Car-Seat.Org

    To booster or not to booster

    Thats the question! My DD1 is going to be 6 at the very very end of June. She is 43" 39lb (or at least that was her last weight without a cast and she was 41lb with a long arm cast and 40lb with the short cast) Ive always said 6 & 40lb was the very minimum I would allow for booster rides. Now...

    Would this be safe?

    For an adult. In our area women are short average 5'2-4. I hear all the time about adults not passing the 5 step test. Is there anything they can do? http://www.seatbeltmasters.com/ Sent from my iPhone using Car-Seat.Org

    Question Bracing

    I know Toyota doesnt allow bracing. Does this mean the seat can not touch the vehicle seat at all? We drive a Toyota van and there is plenty of space for me & Dh drive but my dad who is 6'3 has a hard time on the rare event he is driving. Are there any other vehicles that dont allow it? Ive...

    Would you?

    I was in a rear end crash last week and I was injured (nothing major or hospital worthy) but car seats had to be replaced. My insurance sent out an adjuster to look over the damage and pay me to get it fixed. I explain about the car seats, so him how some of the foaming had crack, and tell him...
