I got my April issue of Parents Magazine in the mail today. They have an intire section about car seat misues and how to correct it. They talked about proper position of harness straps in both rear and forward facing seats. They talked about how to tell if your child has outgrown his seat. They talked about not borrowing latch anchors if the center seat doesn't have it's own. They also say that you need to rear face your kiddo till the limits of their seat and one of the most common mistakes is turning your child forward too soon.:thumbsup: I thought it was a great article.

Parents Magazine! Awseome article! They say ERF! YAY!

I haven't read the whole thing yet, but April 2009 Parents Issue Page 123-128 talks about carseat saftey.
They seem like they are all for ERF.

You have to get this article it is awseome!

So, far so good. The only thing I don't like is this: Boosters are available in two styles: high back and backless. If your car's seat back is lower than the middle of your child's ear, go with a high back booster so she'll have adequate headsupport. Otherwise, using a backless booster is ok. (i think they should say use a high back until it is outgrown).

First page pic: Girl about 2ish? in a Maxi Cosi
Second page: Infant seat and honestly I have no idea what kind(had side wings?)
Third page: Britax Marathon(cute girly print a conture cover)
Fourth page: Lizzard Graco High back booster(CUTE CUTE)
Fifth page: Evenflo Generations(talking aboug combination seats)

UGHHHH the last page: Advertisement is that stupid SONIC one with 3 kids across the back all in wrong. Stupid Sonic!
