Want this question answered?
The child's size is the factor here. If the seatbelt comes across their body like it does for you, then they do not need a booster seat. Sometimes, the child's weight is a factor, too. They should be at least 90 pounds in weight before they are allowed out of the booster seat.
the weight to sit in a booster seat is...40 pounds AND the age of 4 years, BUT preferably the child is longer.
I heard it was supposed to be by weight, not by height, but what do i know.....when they outgrow the carseat
4 The answer is NOT based on age but on the height and weight of your child. If your child is over 40lbs he/she can transition to a booster seat with lap/ shoulder restraint.
The age that a child should use a car seat booster is when they are 2 years of age. Some kids need to use them a little bit earlier because weight and height has an effect on how earlier the kids need to use the booster seat.

The AAP instructs to go by height, not weight now (2010) -- a minimum height for a child's no longer needing a booster seat is four feet, nine inches. 4'9."
A child that is age 8 or younger and weighs no more than 80 pounds can use a booster seat in New Jersey. Children over the age 8 must use a seat belt.
They have to be a certain height and weight but booster seats can be used till up to 5 years old
When they about the height of 4'9".
a child can be at leaset 6 to 8 years of age it really doesnt depond on height or weight
