order of car seats for 3 kids?!

Question

So I babysit and have a four year old in a booster seat, a two year old in a regular car seat and will have my infant car seat as well but I'm not sure what order I should put them all in. I was thinking infant car seat rear facing in the middle. What do you guys think?

Answer

DO NOT PUT THE INFANT IN THE MIDDLE.

infants/babies go on the outsides, bigger kids in the middle

1. The pressure of an accident will travel through the "soft spot" middle of your vehicle

2. In the event of an accident it will be more difficult to get an infant or small baby out of the middle seat

3. If your airbag goes off and knocks you out paramedics will be able to get your children out faster in order of youngest (more likely to get hurt) to oldest

4. The sides of the vehicle have the best structure points in the vehicle

Here is another. Unless back airbags can be turned off always always the middle. Air bags kill infants not placed in the middle every day!

Infant in the middle rear facing you are correct.
