DD aged 19 months is a wonderful child in most respects. Except when it comes to mealtimes. Getting her to stay seated is a nightmare - if she isn't strapped in with a 5 point harness (ie over the shoulders as well as round the waist) she spends the meal trying to climb out, stands up on the seat, generally behaves like a total madam.
She's now old enough to go into a booster seat (as most of her friends are beginning to do), but I want to keep her in her hichchair because it has a 5point harness and stops her doing all of the above. DH thinks I'm being unreasonable because he thinks she just needs to have a star chart etc to teach her to stay in. I think she's too young to really get the star chart /time out thing.
Opinions welcome! She's my first so really am a bit clueless when it comes to things like this (idiot mother emoticon should go here!)

To keep DD in her highchair even though she is old enough to go into a booster seat?
