I just had to share since it's been a while since I've really had any effect on my friend's/family's car seat decisions. We had a new nurse start working and her car seat usage....wasn't the greatest. But she was VERY open to what I said and while I installed our spare seat in her car (so she can take Charlie out) I asked her if she'd be willing to flip her 18 month old around and she said yes! So I showed her how to install the seat both ways (as well as installing Charlie's car seat). She's also open to putting her 30 lb 4 year old back into a harness and her 8 and 10 year olds in boosters. So I'm working on that next. Her kids are all really small.

It's always nice when people are actually OPEN to the info! :thumbsup:

She has to get 3 across her back seat so I'm going to recommend the radian or the maestro for her 4 year old. Not sure on boosters though. The oldest kids can do backless and they already have one backless turbo. Another turbo or maybe a literider? I gotta get screws in her turbo too.

I got a 15month old to re-RF this weekend, I gave a carseat presentation and she asked me to show her how to do it before she would leave the parking lot.

Isn't it great when you can actually convince someone? :)

Awesome!! I worked at a Car seat check this last weekend and I got a mom to turn her 25lb 3 year old around. Her 18 month old was already RFing in an infant seat he was way too big for. They both got new seats and ride RFing :).
