Car Seat Safety

I feel the need to write about car seat safety. I think too many parents just don't know what is safest for their children. I had no clue until I started looking into a convertible car seat for Brynn a few months ago. I spent hours online reading, viewing videos and photos, and comparing carseats. The main points are that a child should remain rear facing as long as possible (up to 35lbs) and in a 5 point harness as long as possible (up to 80lbs).


The Kyle David Miller Foundation web site has pretty much all the info you need to make an informed decision about the safety of your child. Be sure to watch Kyle's video on the Home page (beware, it will make you cry) and to read Car Seat Info.
