Wow. A parent who has never heard or been told NEVER to put a 7 year
old in the front seat?

Frankly, a 7 year old needs a booster--but at the VERY least, belongs in
the back seat. If the car is designed such that the child's legs bend
over the front of the seat cushion and the belt fits properly across his
body, no booster would be needed.

But the front seat--hell, that's child abuse.
