[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had an suv before kids because I like the height and because we do a lot of home renovations (sort of as a hobby, sort of to make money - we’re on our 4th house in 10 years).  Anyway, the perks are being at height with kids when putting them in (easier imo), being able to take strollers, bikes, scooters, etc. getting groceries is easier, everything is sort of easier FOR ME.

While no one needs an suv for basic every day driving around a city with kids, the people who say they have civics and two car seats must be...cramped at best? DH has a mid sized sedan (bigger than a civic for sure) and to fit dd’s car seat rear facing, you have to push the front seats way forward and it’s not super comfortable for me (5’3) and for sure not DH.  This Is fine for us every now and then, but I can’t imagine doing this every day, let alone on a long road trip. Plus I carry around a bob stroller to jog various places with various friends so that would be a non-starter for me.

If you like driving a sedan, then don’t begrudgingly drive an suv just because of kids.  You know what works best for you and your lifestyle. [/quote]
