New Car Seat Policy from AAP

In case you didn't hear/read about the new policy from American Acadamy of Pediatrics about their new recommendations for car seats here is what they say:

In a new policy published in the April 2011 issue of Pediatrics (published online March 21), the AAP advises parents to keep their toddlers in rear-facing car seats until age 2, or until they reach the maximum height and weight for their seat. It also advises that most children will need to ride in a belt-positioning booster seat until they have reached 4 feet 9 inches tall and are between 8 and 12 years of age.
