* Airbags can deploy with too much force for children. The force of an airbag deployment can be too much for a child's small body, causing serious injuries or even death.
* Airbags can hit children in the head or neck. If a child is sitting too close to the airbag, it can hit them in the head or neck, causing serious injuries.
* Airbags can block children's airways. If a child is sitting too close to the airbag, it can block their airway, causing them to suffocate.
* Children can be thrown from the vehicle if the airbag deploys. If a child is not properly restrained, they can be thrown from the vehicle if the airbag deploys.
In addition to these safety issues, children are more likely to be involved in a car accident if they are riding in the front seat. This is because children in the front seat are more likely to be distracted and less likely to be able to react quickly to hazards.
For these reasons, it is always safest to keep children in the back seat until they are at least 13 years old and are able to properly sit with their back straight against the back of the seat and both feet flat on the floor.
