Just hearing the song that plays during this video brings me to tears when I hear it on the radio. It's because of Kyle that I am adamant about car seat safety. His death will not be in vain. Thank you for doing what you do, Laura!
I found this through a friend's friend's list, and i'm sitting here crying.
I didn't know this, and I have the same car seat those kids were in, thinking that's the one I needed to get because she would outgrown it soon, and need the convertable seat belt and booster seat one.
She's currently in the five point harness, but when she reaches weight maximum on this seat, we're going to go get the Regent.
Thank you so much for this, and to Kyle's parents for saving my daughter's life.
I'm sorry for their loss, but his life won't be in vain, because he might possibly have saved my daughter's.
Thank you for posting! Please note that your daughter can outgrow her car seat by height prior to reaching the weight limit of the harness. A seat is outgrown forward-facing by height when either of the following two things happen:
1) The top of the shoulders are above the top harness slot. Forward-facing, the harness should always be in a slot that is at or above the level of the child's shoulders.
2) The top of the child's ears are level with the top of the shell of the seat.
