So my dh doesn't want to spend the $250.00 it could cost to put ds in a rfing seat just for 7 more pounds. (the $250.00 being for either a True Air or a Radian XT) So I showed him the My Ride 65 which is only $150.00. I also told him I'd feel TERRIBLE if we "happened" to get in a wreck and our 3yo was injured more severely than if he had been rfing.
Then my hubbie said that rear impacts are quite common here in S. CA and specifically in our area (freeways) and asked, "what if you moved him to rfing again and then got rear ended very badly?" I guess he's right about not being able to predict the future and all.
We've had some recent (last few years) rear ending crashes here involving large vehicles (usually trucks) rear ending smaller ones. In those cases I'm not sure rfing vs ffing would make much difference anyways.
Anyone have some thoughts/data on this subject?
My hubby's opinion is simply: Our job as parents is to protect them and then not worry. In his opinion my ds is protected adequately and much better than we were as children in cars. Maybe I worry too much?
