So, DD is very near a year and very near 20 lbs., and friends have started asking if I'm looking forward to having her forward facing. I don't know why it makes me so uncomfortable - I think because most of them have children older than DD and are fairly safety conscious (proper use, good seats, etc.) and ERFing is so unheard of out here.
I don't want to sound lecture-y, or like a know-it-all. I've been giving a non-committal answer like, "Oh, she's comfortable how she is, and her seat goes to 33 lbs. rear facing. It's safer, so I'm keeping her this way for now."
The thing that bothers me, though, is that I think some people think it's dangerous. I know I did before I started researching it - the whole broken legs thing.
Anyway, what should I say when someone asks when she's going to go FFing?
