at least with those the parent are pushing them.....a grocery store around here has the little kids shopping carts for kids to push, which yes is a very cute idea, but when parents don't watch their kids and they are running all over with them, uh, i'd rather have them in the big honkin' car carts tied down!
Once I used one to see what my child would do. She liked it for about 30 min than after that she wanted out. That thing was horrible to push. Plus it didn't fit down the aisles or take corners well. They weight a ton after shopping to. I rather push the tinny ones they have at the mall around. But even then 30 min later my child wants out of them and wants to run around.
I hate them, and my son does, too, because they don't stack up well for him at the store. Around here, the moms who use those seem to be extra-careful. Maybe it is as Ava's Mommy says--they don't corner well, etc.
What is it with kids that they must be amused and entertained every friggin second of their lives? They get their own shopping carts, dvds in the car, video games on the plane. I spent a few days with a cousin whose kid screams in the car if she doesn't get to watch a movie - even for a 15 minute drive! I just wanted to turn around in my seat and tell the kid to STFU and read a book, look out the window, pick your nose, anything.
I hate those carts - so hard to push. I avoid stores that have them. In fact, my 3 year old has never even been in one. The worst is a store near me that only has *one* of these carts - all you hear is kids howling b/c they can't get one, or howling b/c their mom is trying to coax them out of if it so that the next kid can use it - ugh.
Hey, I don't hate kids, but, I don't EVEN understand this "entertaining" shit. By the time you're three you should be taught that life isn't a big party. STFU and pick out a cereal and be quiet. BAD parents..you'll have to live with those animals you raise.
What always kills me is the people that get one of those stupid carts and when you pass them the kids are running wild and they are stuck pushing that contraption. Dumb dumbs....
that's the thing DD....kids, most kids, are being raised to be constantly entertained....if a kid has to be in quiet for 5 minutes they think it's torture.....
When I was a kid our grocery store entertainment was not broiling alive in the hot car while they shopped. I was really looking forward to smacking my kids around and leaving them in hot cars when I got older and then society changed on me. Got screwed as a parent and screwed as a kid.
My kid is now 15 and there is no way on Earth he's gonna be ready to move out on his own in 3 years. He still has to be told to brush his teeth every morning. He also doesn't want to be an adult b/c being a kid is "too fun." When I was a kid all I wanted was to grow up and get the Hell away from those people.
I'm responsible for my precious "snowflake kid" and I accept that but I tell you the real culprit is Oprah! She was giving us all parenting advice in the 80s and none of us stopped to ask why we were listening to a woman with no kids....
i fing hate these things. Way to go to put a caddy-size shopping cart in the small aisles of the grocery stores. I especially hate the little pampered brats who insist on sitting in them and fighting with mommy who cannot push the damn thing out of my way because little brat has to have his way with the cart.
Leave the fing kids homes anyway. My next least fun thing in the grocery store is Mommy pushing 2 kids in a cart filled with stuff while daddy follows closely behind her pushing baby #3 and nothing else in the cart. Can't daddy/mommy stay home with all 3 kids?
then we have the seniors wandering aimlessly around pushing the carts similar to how they drive.
Get the hell out of here with those things. Honk honk..I'll kick your ass. The grocery store is not an amusement park for your heathen children.

yeah, whatever happened to looking out the car window seeing the scenery??
I have seen ones that have a dvd player in them. five bucks on your credit card and you child can watch a movie while you shop.
Wow, twinner - that's nuts.
