    Agree – totally. Why can’t these manufacturers make a seat or better
    yet, car manufacturers make a 5 point
    harness belts for children?? and adults
    for that matter.

    While it is always a great idea to protect children, will the manufacturers of the booster seats have a better product available to parents of older children? My child outgrew the booster seat before 5 years of age, as she was in the 99% of height & weight for her age.

    I agree for the safety of our children, but the kids who are the same age certainly do not always look the same.

    I agree totally with the new law. There are way to many people I see in their vehicles who don’t even bother to buckle their child in much less have a booster seat. I also feel though that more needs to be done so parents do not let their children ride in the front seats with air-bags, especially when they are in a child restraint.

    I think it is rediculous that a child has to be uncomfortable in a booster seat until they are 8 years old. my daughter will be 7 next week and can’t wait to sit on the seat and not that terrible booster. i am very disapointed
