Можно ли сажать 7-летнего ребенка в бустер, если он маленький из-за лекарств от СДВГ? Советы!
So I have a question...my oldest son has been 7 since May but he's still on the small side because of his ADHD medication which curbs his appetite, so I'm wondering if it's okay for me to put him in a booster seat?? He's still in a regular car seat. He is 41 lbs and still not even four foot yet.

If he still meets the requirements of his seat and hasn’t outgrown them I wouldn’t move him. But a booster is perfectly safe when used correctly so really the decision is up to you and whether he can sit properly 100% of the time in the car and not slouch if he falls asleep.

It’s based on weight more than age and that is due to safety. I would keep him in his seat. My son is 42 lbs and still in his graco. I’ll keep him til he maxes it out which I believe is 65lbs.

Definitely keep him still in a 5 point harness until he’s maxes it out. I kept my oldest in it till he was 8 1/2 and he was around 60lbs then. He’s not 10 and 76lbs and in a backless. My 5 year old is small as well he turned 5 at the end of April and is 38lbs I have no means to switch him till around 8 as well especially since he’s always been on the smaller side it’s not worth the risk.

Yeah I think I will keep him in a car seat till he weighs more for sure. I want him to be safe. Thanks for that info

Have you asked for something to help with his appetite? My son has been on something for almost a month to help him get hungry because of his adhd meds and it has worked so well!

The neurologist does not want him on more meds. He's on two things already. Just tells us to feed him whatever he wants even if it's just ice cream.

My daughter is very lean but tall and I switched her to a high back booster when she was 6. She’ll be 8 next month and keeps asking to take the back off and just use the bottom booster. She’s 49 lbs and about 51 inches tall. I would wait til he’s at least 48 inches tall to switch him.
