Ok-
My daughter is 4 yo and 38lbs. She will be out of the Graco Cargo in her Grandparents car several months sooner than I had thought (she just put on 4lbs in a two months, more than she had gained in the previous year.). I was going to get a Graco Nautilous for them, but they struggle SO much with the 5 point. My FIL has a bad shoulder and wrist. I do install the seat, and adjust the harness at home when the pick her up, but they have alot of trouble with proper use of the harness.
They do listen, care and respect my opinion, they TRY very hard, they just can't seem to get it right. I am wondering if it is time to just get her a high back booster. She rides with him one mile to the pool, one mile to lunch, one mile back home, once a week. Once a month or so they go farther out to lunch, or to run an errand or something else.
She has an Apex 65 in her other grandma's and a Regent in mine, so she'll be harnessed for the long run in her primary vehicles.
What would you do?
