I have 2 boys and am expecting my 3rd child. At the moment I have 2 radians and a capsule for the baby.
But once the baby is out of a capsule I will need another seat. My oldest will be roughly 5 1/2 yrs by then. Would you buy another radian or a booster. My only option for a booster will be a milano adventure booster because the seat needs to be narrow to fit 3 across. Thanks for your help Rebecca |

For me it would depend on the weight and hight of the 5 1/2 year old and if they could be trusted to sit correctly in the booster seat? ------------- DD 12 DS 9.5 DD 6 DS 4 DD 23 months and here comes number 6 http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">  |

We are in a very similar situation and have decided to go with a 3rd radian. We will likely use it from birth though. I want them all to stay in the radians for as long as possible, rather than boosters. ------------- Caroline, SAHM to 2 boys, S (4 years old) and J (2 years old)

| What seatbelt does the 5 & 1/2 year old use on the radian? Just wondering cos I have a 6yr old and I fine she is much safe on a harness in her booster than with the adult seatbelt. Too me any tethered booster with a safety harness is very safe. |

| He is only just 4 1/2 at the moment so he still uses the harness on the radian, but i figured that would change when he goes to school, I thought he would get teased for being in a harnessed seat? |
