[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] What I do notice in my travels is that European and Asian families don't carry their house contents with them when they go on outings! Fewer sightings of huge diaper bags, double strollers, minivans spilling out their overflow onto the sidewalk, etc. Even toddlers carry their own little bags with small water bottles. The parent has a normal bag, with a diaper and little packet of wipes. No need for food or toys if the outing lasts less than a few hours. In the US their peers in similar conditions are often fed and entertained constantly to keep them well-behaved and as a result develop patience and coping skills somewhat later in life.
