A friend of ours has a 4YO little girl with down's syndrome. She is just about to outgrow the harness on their carseat (which is a short one -- evenflo perhaps?) and she is wondering what to get next. Fortunately it sounds like she is willing to keep harnessing her rather than transitioning her to a booster.
My question is basically what to recommend her to get for her DD, given that she has down's syndrome and will likely need to be harnessed longer than a neurotypical child. She is not overly big, so I was thinking if I could convince them to get her a frontier she'd likely be able to ride in that for a long time. Would their insurance likely be willing to pay for a special needs seat? Cost is going to be an issue and a frontier might be out of their price range -- would the harmony defender likely last long enough?
