Disclosed herein is a system that absorbs energy in a collision and reduces crash forces. The system comprises a load leg positioned to abut against a floor of a vehicle; a support component configured to engage with corresponding coupling components of a child safety seat to secure the child safety seat to a selected vehicle seat and restrict displacement movements therebetween when a collision occurs; and an energy absorption assembly configured to connect the load leg and the support component and absorb crash energy during the collision by at least limiting or eliminating downward motions of a child occupant in the child safety seat.
