What is the safest option? *Pics added*
Last week my dh purchased a 96 Ford Explorer. I gave him a list of things his new car must have and one was headrests in the backseat for ds who is in a lbb. Well it does have headrests but they don't adjust so ds's head is above the seatback when in his booster. I did try him without the booster and he fits okay. Passes all the steps except the shoulder belt is on his neck. We do not have a hbb that he fits in and we're not really in the postion to buy one that he'll only fit in for a couple of months. Actually I don't know if he would fit in any of them anyway because he's tall.
So I guess my options are
-lbb with his head over the back of the seat
-no booster with the shoulder belt on his neck
-lbb in front seat
I know which option I'm most comfortable with but I'm having a hard time since it's not ideal. He'll be in the explorer very rarely because we normally take my car if we're all going somewhere. So which option do I choose?
