American Academy of Pediatrics and Car Seat Safety Technicians recommend that babies ride rear-facing until 2 years old or until they max out rear-facing weight and height limits for their car seats. A rear-facing car seat supports the child's head, neck and spinal cord better and in a motor vehicle collision spreads the crash forces across the child's entire body. Share pictures of your baby or child riding rear-facing in their car seat and encourage other parents to keep their kids riding rear-facing longer. Like us on Facebook and share your photos.
