Importance of a 5-Point Harness Carseat

somebody has to save me from my boredom and loneliness

My son has recently out grown his car seat and I was planning on buying a booster seat. Just yesterday I picked out a booster, had an employee take it to check out...but left without it because something told me to do more research. Tonight, while on-line, your video was the 1st to come up. Thank you so very much for sharing your enlightening and very touching story. Ill be purchasing a car seat and using it for many many more years to come. God bless you and your family.

We have a 4 year old son. I explained to him about Kyle and showed him his pictures. Now, whenever he does not feel like bucklling up, he remembers about his friend Kyle (as he says)...and gets into his carseat. I am so, so sad for the unbelievable loss of your baby boy. Please know how much love surrounds you every day. You will always be in my thoughts and prayers.

I'm not sure how I found myself here, but I almost lost my nephew Jacob, who is now 16, due to a faulty booster seat. I can't imagine the pain this family has gone through, but if I could I would thank them personally for this message, not only did it touch my heart, but it cured me of just a little bit more of my ignorance.

i'm 14 to and find this imformation a bit disturbing...although it is good to know

ok so this is extremely nice to know thank you for the insight, it is also a little disturbing because teenagers who are no longer kids such as myself who cant use the 5 point harnesses should be worried then?

When my son was 2 years old, we were in a side impact collision and his Britax Roundabout kept him in place. When he turned 3 and with a new baby coming, I moved him a highback booster to save money frto om buying another Britax thinking it would be safe. After seeing, Kyle Miller Foundation website, I bought a Britax Marathon for my 3 year old. Now, my sons are 4 and 1--both are in a 5-point harness car seats! Thank you for letting us know the difference between these car seats!

It is best to also try to keep your child in rear facing as long as possible. In Europe, many countries make it law to keep your child rear facing up to 4 to 5 years. I'm going to invest in a Radian XT SL made by Sunshine kids (SL stands for safety latch and can be used rear facing up until 45 lbs and for forward facing 5 pt harnessed from 20lbs up to 80 lbs!!!

I'm so sorry about your loss. Thank you for posting here to let us learn from your experience. Prayers to you and your family.

It amazes me to see how many lives your family has saved with the wonderful information you so gladly share! Thank you for your time and effort in helping others keep their children SAFE in the car seats! My prayers stay with you!
