I am so excited about the new Radian XT SL I ordered for my almost 3 year old toddler (he will be 3 in early Dec.) All of my friends and my family give me weird looks when I tell them that he will be rear facing again soon. The only one who is totally on board with it is my hubby. It is not that unusual for a 3 year old to be rear facing, right? I mean, I don't see what the big deal is if he will be safer rear facing and if he does not mind it. They seem to think I've totally lost it!
