What is best for two 5-year-olds girls? 60 lbs.
Cost is an issue. The family uses nothing and can't afford boosters.
I'm not one to booster so young, but given the situation and weight...I'm willing to go buy them some backless boosters. Need to have a high weight limit.
They have no car in the day but get a ride from a kind woman, so the boosters would stay in her car. But their main vehicle (normally with husband) too is an issue b/c it has 8-year-old seats that likely don't fit.
So either 2 or 4 backless boosters. I honestly don't come across non-use due to cost at our school, but this situation made me pause, and I think I want to help. Otherwise I watch them drive away with no seats each day.
Forgot to say the mom walks to the school so she can't really carry 2 boosters easily; that's why they'll stay in the other woman's car. Then when they drive home, the boosters will be there.
For the main car, they are harnessed. So basically I'd be advocating putting them in backless boosters from a harnessed seat. Feels wrong BUT the seats are 8 years old from a garage sale, and she does not know what kind. I find it hard to believe they are appropriate weight-wise, even. And expired. Is this what you would do? I think it's either backless (due to cost) or the current seats.
