It’s better if you ride a shopping cart.

She’ll be one of those entitled old people who use the motor cart at Woe-Mart despite the fact she doesn’t need one.

Admittedly the memories are dim, but I don’t think I was ever pushed in a stroller at an age where I was old enough to ask to be pushed in a stroller.
Flossie Mud Duck about 8 years ago
I’m old enough that we didn’t have strollers. Our parents carried us until we could walk well, then we were on our own.

I wore out one of my bicycle training wheels instead of learning to balance when I was five years old. I seem to lack that need to avoid looking like a dork.

Eh, here it is the parents who drop strollers like hot potatoes, thinking they’d look like dorks if they push in a stroller a child who could already walk. taking into account that usually, an one-two-year-old can’t walk as fast and far as a grown-up they then proceed to drive their toddlers in cars or use one of those push-tricycles (which are essentially the same things as strollers, only much less comfortable for both the child and parent).

A four-year-old, a student of Blisshaven Academy, IN A STROLLER?! Have you no shame, Alice? The other kids are going to start calling you “a baby”!

The real killer is driving a car a few blocks to the gym, so you can get exercise!
