[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A lot of this can be done here. I sold DD's stroller when she was a few months shy of 3, and I carried for her only a diaper, small pack of wipes, one small snack. When she started asking to bring toys on errands, I would say "Only if you carry it". We only lost one once (she left her stuffed panda on a city bus; I told her he had gone on vacation to Florida). While I couldn't let her walk to a store from the house by herself, I could let her go INTO a store by herself with money to purchase something. [/quote]

Isn't this normal?  Mine is only 18 months and I only carry a diaper, few wipes in a ziploc, and a water cup.  In a regular purse.  I thought most people were past the diaper bag with their entire life it in at that point.

I will admit, the stroller makes a nice Starbucks/shopping bag holder and I don't know how I'll let it go.[/quote]

Are you the one borrowing an extra set of clothes and a snack or band aid from me?  I hang out with these people, and I am always providing things such as sunblock, off, extra water, etc.  Bring your own stuff, don't feel so high and mighty because you don't have stuff for emergencies.  [/quote]

Aren't you the one always shoving things at me?  No, my kid doesn't need a constant stream of water to not get dehydrated, they weren't remotely "hungry" until they saw your kid constantly nibbling on those damn goldfish, and they got sunblock before we left home 45 minutes ago, so chill the heck out.  I do appreciate the bandaid, though.  Thanks for that.[/quote]
