"12 is just ridiculous to be in a booster". Boosters are not about making our kids stay babies or not letting them grow…

I'm 5'7 and it does it to me as well....maybe car makers are having them too high?

Maybe, maybe not. Using it against the manufacturers instructions...might do nothing. But it also might be the reason someone dies, because its only been tested to a certain height and weight limit. It's the same thing with aftermarket products. They are not tested, so there is absolutely no way for us to know how it will perform.

Nope, this is as low as it goes

My seat belt always chokes me, I always have lines all over my neck when I get out of the car and I'm 5'4.

Can you not move it down? I'm shorter and have never had a problem with seat belts, been in 3 car accidents where my vehicle has been totaled too and I'm a okay. But I 100% agree boosters are about keeping kids safe not keeping them babies.

I hate when the seatbelt does that to me. ? Luckily it adjusts down in our car to fit me more comfortably.

Nope this is as high as the seat goes, and as low as the belt goes. No fancy electric multidirectional seats in this car!

Does your seat belt have the slide thing on the car that you can adjust the height up and down? Can your seat go higher? I'm not really short, but my partner is very tall. I am forever adjusting the seat belt so it doesn't do this to me.

I need one too. I'm barely 5'0.

Off topic but your hair color is glorious!

Hard foam can help

family, a pillow would compress

Some do Lacey...in my mini van we have those fancy electric seats that can raise it enough so the belt sits right. In my car (the one pictured) the seat is as high as it goes which isnt very different then if its not adjusted at all

That is super exciting! Is it weird I want to go on a diet just so I can fit a seatbelt better?! lolol

This might sound stupid but Squishy would it help for you to sit on a pillow?? Or is that not safe??

Oh I just looked it up I am definitely getting one! Im 59 in and usually under 120. It looks like it may make driving a little easier.

My seat belt does this too cause I'm 5'3". Unfortunately I'm 200lbs so I definitely am over the weight limits on all of them.

Yup you can. It's super rad too. They actually don't call it a booster. They call it a kid positioning seat. It's made specifically for the kids who don't quite fit without a booster but might have outgrown traditional no back boosters. It's pretty kick ass

Gah, if I ever get down below 120, I am getting a booster! Could I use it in the driver's seat?

If your 120 lbs or less there is a booster that will fit you Lucie coming out VERY soon. I wish I fit into it.

Me too Jade....me too. Do you think I would actually enjoy sitting in a booster? No, however I do enjoy being alive more then i care about sitting in a booster seat. I'm SOOOOO hoping they raise the limits on the Safety First Incognito so I can use it. I just need 3 more inches to the height and for it to go to 160 instead of 120 so I can use it.

I was happy living in my bubble of not knowing these types of things until I came on BB. Now I'm a paranoid freak who doesn't even want to drive ?

I honestly think they should sticky this! I can't even explain how annoyed I feel when people are like, "That's a little much." About boosters. Ugh!!

Very good info and very well said OP ?

Some people just aren't properly educated :/

I know you are so thank you :)
