I was impressed today

It seems in my home town that everyone stops using the harnessed car seat at or before the fourth birthday, and moves them into a no back booster, and then stop using them when they are about six. I was getting in my car at Walmart today, and the lady beside me pulled in with two kids, if I guessed they were probably 6 and 8, and they were both in HBB. My four and a half year old niece is still in a harness. She is now in kindergarten, but when in preschool so many of the kids came in without car seats, not even a booster. I wanted to pat the lady on the back in the car beside me, for using a booster longer then 6.

Hopefully as time goes on, we will start seeing more people using boosters longer. The word is getting out slowly.

That's great! I have just moved to a smaller city and I am so happy to see a lot of the kids is hbb here. I lived near a major city previously and kids also mostly went to lbb. It is a welcome change.
