3-Year-Old Killed: How To Prevent Your Own Booster/Seatbelt Tragedy
Christine Miller, a Texas mom who lost her 3-year-old son, Kyle, in a fatal accident, has posted a video tribute online. More than the tribute, she carries a message about car accidents and the role of her child’s booster seat and car seatbelt in his death. (Kyle’s sister, restrained in the same type of booster was saved while Kyle was killed due to the seatbelt’s failure.)
Christine believes she has found a couple of seats that could save thousands of children. Please take a moment to visit Kyle’s site where you can read about the carseat safety foundation they’ve started in Kyle’s memory as well as the alarming and touching video on YouTube.com.
The two seats Christine has found so far that offer a 5-point harness, bottom restraint and top tether for children up to 80 pounds are:
