[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I feel like folks (especially OP) are missing the "double stroller" aspect here. I had an only and never used a stroller, but if I had a double stroller that I preferred to use over... what? Maybe she has a really babyish old single one from before she had Kid #2? I mean, why wouldn't I keep the double stroller I'd been using for years, at the very least for my youngest, who will only be 3 next year, and maybe I put toys/shopping bags in the other part, or let the 7-y-o hop in occasionally if they feel like it... I don't see why this is confusing.   [/quote]

Adding: I do find it a bit odd for folks to think it's unrealistic to expect *most* kids (w/o special needs) over 4, and especially 5, to walk. Even a mile+ commute every day, even at the zoo, etc. But it's also none of my business if they do use a stroller past preschool. [/quote]

My 18-month old walked a mile yesterday, albeit, very slowly. My son and my sister could both walk well over a mile by 4. Unless it’s an entire day of walking, or they’re running late on a morning commute, a typically developing 6 yo doesn’t need a stroller. [/quote]
