Hi all! How do folks handle the situation with a high back booster seat in a Prius? I'd love any and all advice. The situation:
-Only child
-Ready for booster (almost 7 years-old; 50" tall; 56 pounds) + (Just outgrowing FF seat)
-Naps in car sometimes (and would like to keep that possibility for road trips, etc.)
I know that center is truly safer, so I would really like her sitting center.
I also drop her off at school each morning as part of a long, move-it-fast line, and I am loath to get out and buckle my booster back in after she exits. Plus, to be honest, I'm usually running late for work, and the spot where I drop her off is sometimes next to mud, and I have on my heels, etc. I would so like a solution that does not add one more stressful thing to our mornings! BUT, it seems safety should be more important than my heels, work clothes, long drop-off line, etc. GRRRR, Prius, why don't you have a center latch?!?
I really need the amazing brain-trust of this site. I'm open to any and all suggestions (short of changing cars), and have not yet purchased a booster. What should I do?:shrug-shoulders:
