My friend has a very heavy younger 2 yo, about 42lbs. Their carseat only goes to 40lbs, so she is going to use all the money they get for Christmas to get him a HWH seat. Great, but until then she has turned him back RF. She saw a crash test video and she said it was haunting, so she cant bear him to not be RF. I guess she thinks that since he's over the weight limit for both RF and FF, that he may as well be RF, since it's normally safer. I told her I will lend her one of our HWH seats til Christmas, so he can be properly restrained. Wut can I tell or show her to make her realize that RF isnt safer if the child is 7lbs over the weight limit of the seat? R there any tests done, or stories of accidents showing seat failure when used so far over the limits? TIA!
