Obviously in the rear seats, but which one? Accordingly a new study done by University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine, it is the center seat. The results showed that children seated in the center had a 43% lower risk of injury than those in either side position.

Really glad I came across this article because we usually place Owen’s car seat in either rear outboard positions but never in the center for ease of access and keeping an eye on our angel. But with a stat like that - a whopping 43% lower risk - I will happily do more stretching in putting Owen in and out of his car seat. Regardless of where he seats in the back, I can’t really see his face anyways, so why not put him in the safest seat?!
