Huh... i really hope not. My kids are both quite tall. When we brought DS to P1 last week, his P2 buddy was one head shorter than him...
don't shoot me :oops:
but base on what you wrote, it seems more like both your children needs booster seats, rather than the other way around.
Really no chance? -

Actually, the lap part of the belt is very important. Without the booster, the lap belt will go over a child's stomach, which is still not very well-developed. The lap belt should go over the hips/top of the thighs for safety. In the event of an accident, a poorly positioned lap-belt could cause internal abdominal injuries.
This one ok. Think both of them manage to have lap belt go over the top of their thighs already... -

well you did said that your DD is 137 cm, and DS is 129 and when seated both are about same height due to DD shorter body. -

I wonder how if you are over certain height like Yao Ming, the current safety belts also won't be safe on you, right? I mean, the upper belt crossing your arm pit... -

It could also be interpreted that DD has long legs. Actually, one of DW's colleagues commented when visiting us in hospital when DD was born, was that she's never seen a baby with so long legs...
