A while back at the mall I was watching this mother push a stroller. You know the ones that are able to transport a small army and fold up to the size of a compact car.
Instead of relaxing and letting the Mom do all the work, the kid was sitting backwards with his butt on the tray—bouncing.
Now there’s an accident not only waiting to happen, it’s screaming, “Over here, pick me!”
I wish I could say this shopping trip had a happy ending that didn’t end in ER. But I can’t.
So parents, seriously, if you’re going to buy a Hummer-sized stroller so your kindergartener ride instead of walk (and we wonder why our kids are fat) – strap them in. Use a freakin’ padlock if you have to.
