Just earlier this week I had my daughter van driver tell me he doesn't really think she needs a booster seat!
My daughter is only 43lbs. She weighs the same as her 4.5 year old brother. I have not measured her height lately, but for a 7 year old she is only in the 3rd percentile for height and weight. She is fitting size 5 pants and size 6 tops...
She does need a booster otherwise the seatbelt does not fit her correctly, the belt will cut into her neckline and it also sits too high up on her waistline and I don't like that.
BUT... here is what gets me. The van driver said well the other 2 kids aren't in booster seats! Mind you the seat belt cuts into both of the kids necks, so I my opinion those 2 kids don't fit the seatbelt correctly either...
I called the van company that transports them to voice my concern and they said they will transport the child according to what the parents consent to...
