So I guess I'm just looking for reassurance (or a reality check!) from the pros on this.
The Radian is expiring at the end of this year (it's seen continuous use for the last 6 years!). So today I pulled it out of the car, and put the Frontier with ClickTight back into harness mode for my 4.5-yr-old. And I have finally pulled the backless Graco Affix from its box for my about-to-turn-8-yr-old. I'm having a sudden wave of guilt, going to the backless booster! Is it okay? Will she be SAFE?! I'm freaking out a little. My almost-8-yr-old is probably around 47 lbs and 47" tall...maybe a bit more on both. I mean, she fits within the posted ranges for the Affix but still...I have really tried to get educated, be car-seat savvy, and I have been pretty conservative (eldest rear-faced until 3.5 and her sister was closer to 4 before I faced her forward). Both of my girls are petite. Is this cool, what I'm doing? Or should I be looking at some other high-back booster for my almost 8-yr-old? I'm driving a Subaru Outback if that matters at all.
Thanks!
