    Default Rear-facing until 2 questioned?

    Did you read this? http://www.babybargains.com/rear-fac...ecommendation/

    and

    http://www.babybargains.com/aap-we-m...ecommendation/

    It says kids are safer forward-facing from 13-24 months.
    Thoughts?

    Interesting. If I am understanding correctly, 1 study, that was done to protect a company from a lawsuit, contradicts many others. DD RF until about 4. DS is going to be 2 this month. He is RF and will continue to be until he hits the RF limits of his car seat or until there are many other meaningful studies showing I should turn him sooner.

    A hired gun, hired to dispute the findings and make them say what they are paid to say, does not give me pause at all. Call me cynical, but I've seen large companies say all sorts of ridiculous things and they get paid tons to say it. The jury obviously didn't find their expert credible with that verdict. This is not independent or neutral research.
