A new study done by State Farm in Indiana looks at why parents have such a hard time properly installing child safety seats. One of the more eye-opening findings is less than half of parents kept their child rear-facing until two years of age or longer. Nearly 70% of parents didn’t anchor the top tether of the forward facing seat. And less than a quarter of parents used free resources provided to have a certified community-based expert check their car seat installation and usage.
