Just want some opinions. There are two kids, side by side in ffing radians. Do I choose the 31 pound 5 yo w/o safestop to go untethered? Or the 50 pound 7 yo?

why no safestop?

I thought that if untethered, then no safestop. I think that's what the radian's instructions say.

The safestop can't be used on an un-tethered seat.
I'm leaning towards booster or no TT for the oldest. Curious to hear what the techs say. You need the RN for 3 across, right?

I didn't vote, but I think I would lean to the 5yo w/o safe stop, since the head excursion on a smaller/lighter child would probably be less (takes less time/distance to stop a smaller/shorter entity moving/rotating unless I have my physics mixed up). (and how many /'s can I use in one sentence?)
ETA ok I voted now.

Good because that's what did. I thought I remembered such things, but wanted to make sure. Whenever dd3 can manage to buckle and unbuckle herself I plan to put her in the middle with ds on the side in the bodyguard. I found it challenging to lean over the middle row to buckle and unbuckle dd in the back. It's more doable with her on the side.
