In reply to Jeremy Cole. Your daughters comfort and stress is definitely important when making the decision to change the car seat direction. And if she was not happy and uncomfortable, then you can to take that into consideration. Thanks for your comment.

Thankfully have never been in any accidents with kids in tow *knock on wood*. Thanks for the reminder, have been meaning to get our installation checked out as I’m sure it could use some fine tuning!

My family and I have been very fortunate to have never been in an accident in our vehicle before. It does not mean we wont ever but when our oldest little girl turned one and was 22lbs we turned her forward facing. We did it for her to be able to look at us and look outside when she wanted. Because of this she is always looking outside and can be very quiet when she does. It makes for an enjoyable car ride. It doesn’t however make her safer if we ever do get in an accident, so I defiantly make sure that her car seat is strapped and anchored down so that it does not move at all.

My family and I were in an accident when he was just 9 months old, scariest thing I’ve ever been through. We also ditched the carseat even though it looked just fine and got a new one. We had him rear facing and I am so grateful we did because while my husband I were hit with the full blast of breaking glass which cut our faces up pretty good, because my son was turned around, he walked away with one tiny piece of glass in his cheek and that was it.

Sharing on Twitter. I hear you – my son was in a serious accident when he was 13 (and out of a car seat by then) and is alive only because he was belted in. Car seat safety is so vitally important, and improper installation isn’t just a problem in Canada – it also is a concern in the United States. I was glad to hear about the dealership programs in Canada to help with this problem.
