Our long torsoed DD7.5 yrs old has a Britax Frontier in my van, and a Britax Parkway in hubby's van. We live in Ontario.
Parkway - I don't have the manual here, as it's in hubby's car with the seat, but what is the max. height requirement? When will I know she is too tall for the seat? If she outgrows this, can we get a Clek, or, does it mean she can't be in a booster seat any longer?
Frontier - Can she outgrow this seat? In booster mode, is there a time when it's dangerous for her to be in this seat?
We want to keep her in a booster seat as long as possible, especially since we take long road trips to Florida. I am still confused as to whether kids can outgrow booster seats, and when it becomes dangerous to be using a booster seat? I see that recommendations are for most kids to be in seats until ages 10 -12, which is what we want to do. Around here though, people take kids out of boosters at like age 7 or 8, and it drives me crazy! We are all about safety in this household!!!
Can anyone help me with these questions? I think she will outgrow the Parkway before the Frontier based on the seats, but I'm a bit confused on some of the specific details.
Thanks, Tiger
