most states don't have a law about it. the recommendation is 100 lbs and up or over 4'9", age irrelevant, but it's really up to you most of the time.

Age 12 or 4'9 is the recommended age for the front seat

No it's not by age!!!!! It's by weight! You have to be 100 pounds to sit in the front regardless of age. Even if you are 16 you still have to be 100 pounds.

The reason is because so that the airbag doesn't crush your ribs and hurt you seriously.

i was 10 when i first sat in the front. but i think it depends on weight there is something on the visor ( sun blocker) that tells you

It depends on the laws governing your state. I would check out your stats department of transportation website.

I believe the average is 11 years, 80 lbs. And the reason for this being the harm that can happen to a child when the airbags go off.
