I think child in aisle is best for parents' space, but from a safety perspective is it a stupid idea?
Any recommendations?
It has been a few years since I have traveled with a car seat, but it used to be a requirement that the car seat be in the window seat. This is for safety reasons so that the car seat doesn't interfere in an emergency.
