baby on board

[aceshark]

center rear seat with crash tested child seat preferably with tether hook (I think walang oto meron dito na tether connectors).

yup. correct. meron din sa manual ng cars na pwede sa front passenger seat using a child seat. isasandal mo sa dashboard. pero i think safer pa rin sa back seat. once saw a child seat, RECARO yung brand. la lang. napaka-swerteng baby naman...

[patbayns]

meron nga akong nakita sa galleria na child seat, puwedeng backfacing, isandal sa dashboard, sa front passenger seat.

kung sa harap naman, di ba mas mataas ang risk ng injury sa front kesa sa back seat? kung sa rear seat, ano kaya kung sa likod ng driver?

parang OT: anong magandang child seat brand kaya?

yep, higher yung risk nga siguro pero ang rationale naman for having the baby placed on the front seat is hindi ka na mahihirapan i-monitor yung baby. kasi kung sa likod, syempre, tingin ka ng tingin sa likod or itatapat mo rear-view mirror mo sa baby which is dangerous din. wala ka nang view sa traffic sa likod.

sa OT question. GRACO siguro or kung gusto mo maangas baby mo, tingin ka sa taas ^

almost bought one at 16,000.00 pesos.
i was thinking that i cant afford a full sized recaro (and i cant fit in also), why not give it to my kids. hehehe

Rear facing, front mounted child seats are killers, I have yet to see an ad or an owner's manual advicing that bro.

Front mounted, front facing child seats are quite common, actually any car seat can be mounted with a 3-point seatbelt location.

Best area is still the center because there's nothing infront to hit the kid, and side impacts are rarely transferred to the center seat area.

Usually people install a second mirror to view the baby, tipong yung ipapatong lang sa dashboard or something of that nature.

If your baby needs attention, it just makes more sense to pull over and attend to the kid instead of reaching over (whether it is on the passenger seat or rear), you're risking everybody's life here.

If you are buying car seats, you have to plan ahead...

If your child is still a baby (can't seat on their own yet), the best way to go is to get those baby carriers that can be removed from the main child seat. That way, you're all set from birth to around 4 years old.

Child seat namin hand-me-down lang from a friend, and it doesn't work now that my son is almost 2. He can get out of it really quickly and he's not comfy in it already.

Getting an adjustable toddler seat that'll fit him until he's 5 or so soon.

Child seats here are just ridiculously expensive... The models they sell for 12-20K here costs less than 10K in the US... I guess supply and demand nadin, dami bumibili dun and required by law kasi in most states.

Wag nyong tipirin... Sobrang sulit naman good child seat, sabihin mong 20K yun, tapos 5-6 years nya magagamit parang 300 bucks a month lang yun sa security ng anak nyo...

While it's true that most of us grew up not seating in a child seat (and buhay padin tayo), people travel more these days, more cars, more reckless drivers etc... Not worth the gamble.
