What is the reasoning behind the 40 pound weight limit for boosters?
And why do some boosters have a lower weight limit?
Is there really a big difference between, say a 38 pound, 4 year old and 40 pound, 4 year old in a booster. Is 40 pound kid just as safe in a booster as 42 pound kid of the same age? Is it better to wait to booster a child, of appropriate age, just because he is only 40 pounds?
