Don’t turn your baby around at 12 months. Watch this short video and you’ll realize why you should keep your child rear facing for as long as possible. Facing the rear is 5 times safer than facing front! Instead of turning your baby around at 12 months, get a rear facing or convertible car seat and keep your toddler safe. Many convertible car seats permit children to ride rear facing until 35 lbs. which is a tremendous difference in safety. Questions? Email ad@adventuredad.com NOTE:Those of you wondering why the rear facing seat is in the front seat, there is a good answer. Using a rear facing car seat in the front seat is as safe as the rear seat (AIRBAG DISABLED). The Swedes, car seat safety obsessed nation, have been using the froint seat for the past 30+ years with fantastic results. The car seat injuries and fatalities are far lower than any other nation. Airbags are disabled with a key or a switch and so far there is not one single fatality due to malfunctioning car seats. Pure crash test data says rear seat is about 35% safer but there are other factors which make the front set a great place for a rear facing seat. Better communication between driver and child is one. No looking in the mirror or digging in the back for a pacifier. More flexible placement of kids in the car. When transporting many kids in the car the front seat means more possibilities for kids sitting properly in a car seat. Another huge factor is longer time rear facing. Many parents are concerned …

At least 90% of children are improperly restrained in their car seats. Car accidents are the #1 killer of children in the US ages 1-14, and the #2 killer of infants in the US under age 1. Most of the videos I have seen have been of children improperly restrained. So here are a few tips on how to secure your child in their seats, giving them the absolute best chance at surviving an accident. “2 and 30″ and is the new “1 and 20″. The longer you can keep your child rear-facing, the safer they are. In an accident at 30mph, 130lbs of pressure is put on a forward facing child’s spinal cord. If it stretches a mere 1/4 inch, you are looking at internal decapitation. There have been no reported cases of a child breaking their legs because of extended RF. But even if that was a real possibility, would you rather your child have a broken leg, or a broken neck? Harness straps need to be snug against the child. No loose slack. They should not be able to get their arms out of the straps. For a RF child, the straps need to be at or below shoulder level. For FF, they need to be at or above. The chest clip retainer (its black, in this video) is designed to keep the shoulder straps in place in the event of a crash. In order to do that, it needs to be at armpit level. For most car seats, you child has outgrown it by height RF when there is less than inch of hardshell above their heads. Check your manual. Expired seats are deadly seats. Car seats expire after 6 years from date of manufacture …
