Onboard restraint systems in modern vehicles simply aren’t designed for little ones, and attempts to build in child seats as part of the car have been less than successful. Even child seats aren’t designed for all little ones. They will progress from rear-facing infant to rear-facing and then front-facing (convertible seats configure both ways) and finally booster seats.
