Car seats

Hi all,

My 3year old has just moved into a group 2/3 car seat (she was too tall for her old one and over 18kg so to big for 5point harness). My question is can I sit her in the front seat?

Thanks

it's a lot safer in the back and I believe unless you can switch your airbags off in the front then they shouldn't go there as if the front airbag goes off it can be fatal as their bone structure isn't fully strong enough or something along those lines is what I've read.

Just read that at her age she can go in the front with airbags on but you should put the seat as far back as possible to maximise the distance between the seat and airbag xx

I would keep her in the back as it's safer
