However the American Academy of Pediatrics advises that you keep them rear-facing for as long as possible. The manufacturer will inform you when your child is ready to transition forward.

In reality the head of a child can generate up to 25 times the force of their weight in an accident -- more than enough to cause a fatal injury. This is why children of the ages of 5 and under are at the highest chance of suffering fatal head injuries when they ride in a car seat that is facing the front.

Many parents believe that their children have stronger necks and are able to make the transition to a car seat newborn seat that faces forward sooner. It's important to keep in mind that a child who is in the 95th percentile isn't stronger than a child who's 5th percentile, and that no amount of push-ups by teens can change this.

Forward-facing

Many parents are enticed by the idea of turn their babies' car seats around as they grow older because it is more convenient. But they must keep in mind that rear-facing seats are safer for children.

A baby who is facing forward in the car seat puts their necks in danger in the event of a crash, as the head could be thrown back by force against the seat in front and can cause permanent injury to the spine. Even if a child's neck muscles are strong enough, it's still possible for them to experience whiplash. This is particularly the case for children with smaller necks, like infants under one year old.

A child who is facing in the direction of the driver is more likely hit his head on the dashboard or even a window, in an accident. Depending on the type of crash and the speed at which the vehicle is traveling the head may be pushed back against the seat and break the skull or the spinal cord.

The current safety standards require children to remain rear-facing until they reach 20 pounds and 1 year old. The reason for this is that children younger than one year old don't have enough neck strength to withstand a head-on crash, which is the most dangerous kind of car crash.

Using a harness and tether when rear-facing helps keep the kid's head stable and reduces the stress on their necks. In addition that a child who is rear-facing is less likely to sustain head injuries due to the fact that the impact is cushioned by body of the seat.

Booster seat

There is no age limit or height at which children are safe from using booster seats. Kids should use it until the belt fits them correctly, and that can happen anytime between age 8 and 13.

A booster raises the height of a child so that they can sit comfortably upright in the car seat inserts for newborns. The shoulder part of a belt is also positioned so that it is close to the chest, but not over. The lap part of the belt should rest on the thighs, not on the stomach.

Some all-in one boosters allow you to switch between harness and boost modes. They are suitable for children from to 65 pounds in harness mode and up to 100 pounds as boosters.
