Helped keep an 8-month-old rear-facing

I was in BRU today. I saw a couple with a baby smaller than mine. They were putting her in a Generations 65( that's the Ffing only harness to booster, right?). And trying to fit her. So I started off with how cute she was. And she really was. Then, I asked how old she was. She's 8 months. I said something about her being the same size as my dd3 who's 16 months old. Then, I jumped right in. I asked if they were looking to replace their infant seat and explained that she has to be RFing until 1 because that's the law, but explained why to wait longer. I showed them the MR and how to use it. The car seat lady that works there is Awesome. She knows all about extended rear-facing and how everything works. And she's super nice. So I walked into another area. And as I was walking back through the car seat lady was helping them get a myride box. So Yay! I helped a baby.

That is AWESOME!!! Yeap the Generations 65 is FF'ing only - I have one for Madeline and she can be on the center slot, I cannot imagine a 8 month old even fitting into it....even just for "joking around" purposes....

Good stuff. And even if they do flip her at age 1 at least she's in a seat that will offer her some support (keeping her head in the shell).

I cannot imagine an 8m/o in a Generations. Yikes.
