Did you know that the American Academy of Pediatrics now recommends that all children under age 2 be in a rear-facing car seat? Might not have worked that way for your older kids, but it you have a wee one right now, then this is the rule you should follow. You could be thinking this is a major pain, but guess what? Your kiddo is 75% less likely to die or incur a serious injury if rear-facing when riding in the car. Can’t argue those numbers, can you?
