Heartbreaking....

I got the link to this video from a message board. It's heartbreaking but I do think its message is important and therefore I want to share it:

We kept Brooke rear facing for a while after the 20 lb, 1 year minimum. After learning more about the importance of  Extended Rear-Facing for kids, we plan on keeping Summer rear facing for as long as possible. After watching this video, we are now planning on also keeping her in a five point harness seat that is tethered to the car as long as possible. People do not seem to be aware that the 20 lb and one year rule is a MINIMUM. For optimal safety, children should be kept rear facing...their neck muscles simply are not strong enough to withstand a crash safetly. Think of a cantelope on a stick....it is simply too risky to only follow the minimum guidelines.
