    I had the long legs issue with ds (still withing the weight/ height limit) but they find a way to make themselves comfortable and honestly if it came down to it id prefer 2 broken legs to a broken neck.

    Yay for you.

    When you have seen the youtube clips of long legged children rear facing in European countries, you won't think your DD looks squashed at all. If she isn't at the height marker yet, keep using it!

    Yay for you.
    Why yay for me? I don't get it
    I wasnt being smart. IME, one of the most common arguments for forward facing is "legs are too long."

    I said yay for you. As in 'great decision'. You checked it out and decided what was safest even though he might have looked a bit uncomfortable you did your research and chose the best thing for him. Yay.
    Please don't derail a really important/interesting thread by assuming someone is saying something that, in this case, they are not. You could have PMd me and asked me to clarify off the boards. Or reported me if you prefer.

    Tasha - this was a great question and a really important one. I hope it continues to provide support and assistance to you.
