Hi, I'd like advice about the best/safest spots to place our car seats in the honda odyssey 2016.
we have our 5 1/2 year old in a harmony defender (forward facing), our 3 year old rear facing in a britax marathon 70 and baby on the way that will probably use the graco snugride 35 of course rear facing.
We probably don't want to have all three across in the middle row cuz we tend to have family members ride with us on trips and i would assume it would be difficult for adults to get into the third row with all the car seats in the second row. even moving one of the captain seats forward in the 2nd row, since there are car seats, would be difficult for an adult to pass through to the third row.
So, which are the safest seats in the odyssey, to install the three car seats. which child should go in the back (3rd ) row? and in the 2nd row, which child should go in back of the driver and which child in back of the front row passenger seat? and remove the middle seat so people can pass to the third row?
or try to install in the second row, middle seat and remove one of the outboard seats? so people can access third row?
I heard the middle seat is the safest and also i heard that rear facing children are positioned the safest so they shouldn't be priority for the middle. instead put a child forward facing in the middle- is this true?
anyway, im just really confused which is optimal way to go about this, and would love to hear what other people do. thanks so much!
