hehehe... Have a good friend who is about 4'11", maybe 100lbs soaking wet. We joked with her about her having to buy a booster seat because of the weight/height limits on them. Maybe she can use her son's when he outgrows it? She's a good sport about it. In all seriousness, thanks for the info. I hate seeing shows on TV where mom's are crying because their child was killed because they didn't buckle them in properly to go to the store. -Andrea

This is an excellent example of primary prevention . We nurses across the state need to do our best in educating the public about these changes.
