Car Seat Safety by Age: Booster Seat Safety from Children's Hospital of Philadelphia

- Children who reach the highest weight or height limit of their forward-facing child safety seat should switch to a belt-positioning booster. Research shows securing 4- to- 8-year-old kids in belt-positioning booster seats with both lap and shoulder seat belts, instead of seat belts alone, reduces the risk of serious injury by half. This video explains the two different types of booster seats and provides general guidance on installation and proper use.
Remember, children should stay in a belt-positioning booster seat until the vehicle lap and shoulder seat belt fits properly, typically when they have reached 4' 9" tall and are between 8 and 12 years of age.

Love this video, in this age it’s refreshing to see a father caring for his son.
Absolutely!!
Yes
DO NOT put a 40 pound child in a backless OR a highback booster. They should be harnessed until they outgrow their harnessed carseat. Harnessed carseats can hold up to 70-85 pounds max. There's far too many children being internally decapitated because they are rushed into forward facing positions or boosters when they are still too small just because manufacturers and laws are wrong about what is actually safest !!
Im willing to risk it. I have spares.
My son it getting harder to keep using the car seat
I read that the data is unclear if there's a benefit to keeping a child in a forward facing 5 point harness versus using the actual seat belt in a high back booster. There's a clear benefit to rear facing longer in terms of internal decapitation. It's sad when I see 2 year olds forward facing already. We just started using the car seatbelt with a high back booster for my 45 lb. 4 year old because he kept pushing the button to loosen his 5 point harness because he has sensory issues. I felt this was more unsafe than just switching him over to the seat belt. I kept him rear facing until he maxed out the seat at 40lbs. I wanted to keep him rear facing longer, but he's a big kid that maxed out his seat before the age of 4.
Most harness seats are 65 pounds
I agree! Sadly many parents don't do this. I'd also like to say more often than not parents shouldn't let kids around the age of 10-11 out of boosters yet they usually still don't fit the seat belt alone around that age sadly most parents let them out long before that.
I love how at 2:27 he thorws the seat in the back and doest clip the seat to the car, and just puts the seat belt on it. LOL!!!! Just because of that I dont believe anything this video is saying. That kid is way to big for a booster seat. Are they just trying to sell booster seats?
🤦♀️ You do that so that when a child is NOT in the car the seat doesn’t become a flying projectile Incase of a crash.
