I let Hannah ride in our new Turbo Booster this afternoon. I want to get her used to it and make sure she can sit in it properly so when she has to use it w/ other people, I will know she's safe.
First off, why in the world do (some) people rush to put their kids into boosters? What a huge pain in the butt! It is SOOOOOO much harder and time consuming to buckle her in now! Maybe because we have 3 across so there is a seat so close to it, but the arm rest gets in the way too. She definitely can't buckle herself in and it's a pain for me to do it.
Second, she loved it and she wants to use it all the time. I've told my kids no booster riding until they are 5, and then it's only sometimes. No full time using a booster until they are 6. Abby wants to ride in it so bad, I am nowhere near ready to let her out of a harnessed seat even for a minute.
Thirdly, What a freakin pain, seriously! Is it only so bad when you have 3 seats across, or is it always a pain? Do any boosters have arm rests that flip up out of the way while you buckle, or have no arm rests like the old parkway? When was the last time the old parkways were manufactured?
I have to keep my promise to Hannah, but I am so not ready to do this full time starting next July!
