My son turned 3, but he is above average for height and weight. He is at a healthy weight but most of it is his height. He is taller than most 4 year olds. He looks like he is 5. I don't know whether to put him in a booster seat already. Please help. I've gone online and asked but there isn't much help. Everytime I put him in his seat, he says oohh, mom my neck. Its at its highest. What should I do?
Quoting AHmom103:
Whatever i dont beleive that for a moment that an actual certified tech wouls give you such horrible advise when You could of EASILY just gotten a bigger convertable or FF seat. EASILY. Not to mention the advise your trying to give is to a mother whose child JUST turned 3.

well go by his height and weight and what the laws are in your state and find the correct seaat for him
Quoting AHmom103:My kids' doctor told me to put my oldest dd in a booster once she outgrew the convertible seat, even though she wasn't at 40 lbs yet. He said it was safer to be in a seat that was the right height even though she was a couple pounds under the weight limit than it is to be in a seat that she's too tall for.
I hope you didn't listen to someone who has no idea about car safety.
How is he fitting into his current seat? What is his weight and the Weight limit of his current seat? Where are his shoulders in relation to the top slots of his seat?
How's your kid's first day/week of daycare or preschool? Please share! :)
