My 8yo DS has been in a HBB full time for several months now. With fairly frequent reminders he is able to sit well in a high back (though all bets are off if I put him in something backless). Currently he sits between two Radians in a Maxi-Cosi booster. Today one of the toddlers he sits between had a tantrum and threw a pacifier on the floor. DS (being the expert big brother) immediatly bent down to pick it up. At that moment I had to slam on my brakes because someone cut me off. DS hit the seat in front of him! He has no injuries at all, but I was terrified! Now I am seriously contemplating moving him back into a harnessed seat. He really struggles with remembering to sit upright and not to move around too much or put his legs up. But at 8 years old it's becoming inconvenient to keep him harnessed. Obviously is harnessed is safer for him in terms of maturity I will switch him back, but I'm just not sure what to do. Any help is appreciated!
