Safety is always a top concern for parents, and it should be. Our children are our most prized possessions, our best friends, our pride and joy, and more. Our children are the future of the planet, and for that reason alone it is important to take care of the next generation of humans. Car seats are often the subject of heated debates, amended laws, and parent speculation. People want to know more about their children’s car seats than ever before, and the most important thing that they want to know is if it is safe for their child.
 
Baby car seats have a lot of laws and regulations that govern how they are made. They have to follow federal guidelines, and they have to be secured in your car correctly. Car seats are not a one stop shop, either. There are also federal guidelines that determine what height and weight your baby must be before using which car seat. It can be a very difficult decision for parents as to which car seats are the safest for their children. Since they are all made following federal guidelines, some parents think that all car seats are created equal. That is hardly the case.
