(I say 2 because of AAP recommendation)
I guess I was thinking it said "to limits of seat - minimum of 2 years. I don't know that I've ever seen the actual recommendation!
no, there's no age stipulation in the AAP recommendation. you often see the 2 and 30 guideline stated because many rf seats will last most kids at least that long. Also, most US studies only go through age two because there just isn't enough real world data to go beyond that yet.
Plus, if a parent has only ever heard 1 and 20, they're going to think we're off our rockers when we start quoting the recent European study showing the benefits of erf through at least age 4.
