people get confused in regards to tether straps

basically you follow the manufactures instructions..

eg safe n sound you have to tether both forward and rear facing. these car seats have been tested with the tether and to use it without would make the carseat unsafe

cosco you dont tether rearfacing but (least I am sure you do( you do tether forward facing. this carseat hasnt been tested with a tether rearfacing so again by using the tether would place the car under unnecessary force in an accident.

sunshine kids radian you can chose whether to use the tether both rear and forward facing. This carseat has been tested both with and without the tether

Thanks MamaT! I have done this, it feels much more secure now. I had to put it in the middle too, otherwise DH (or anyone) couldn't go in the passenger seat.
Why are carseats so complicated! To use the tether or not to use the tether. I am happy with the installation of my Radian now. Thanks guys.
I do think that the Radian manual instructions are easier to follow than the 'old' carseat I was using.
