Anxiety said: the lesson i've learned from this thread is that you're never too old to be pushed around in a stroller.
 Yeah, especially when you have some immature people out there who don't like to pay child support. Give them a stroller. | |

Anxiety said: one of my pet peeves is parents who push old-ass kids around in strollers.
one time i saw a kid in a stroller READING A BOOK. another time, i overheard a kid in a stroller ASKING HIS MOMMY FOR A CUP OF COFFEE. i mean, come on people. i'm going to be 39 this week, and i'd LOVE to still be pushed around in a stroller. but you know what? at some point, my parents decided that lines needed to be drawn. if a child is drinking coffee and reading books = NO MORE STROLLER. 
[Edited 8/19/09 14:01pm] um...is this some kinda fetish play?....cause men with gray hair don't get pushed in strollers... | |

[Edited 8/19/09 14:01pm] um...is this some kinda fetish play?....cause men with gray hair don't get pushed in strollers... what, is that one of those dumb rules like "men in glasses don't make passes"? well, i don't play by those laws. especially when it comes to being pushed around in a duck-shaped stroller. | |

I give my my son coffee w/ milk & sugar for an asthma attack when its winter and we are not near his nebulizer or he has used it too much and he's still tight. Hot coffee stops an asthma attack.  it works. | |

Island folks do more natural cures, actually coffee had several uses, but not the nasty American coffee, we do ours espresso style. Yes, I have asthma and I have been drinking coffee since I was 2. It works, and so does a steamy shower, that's what they did before folks used inhalors on children, and when I was a kid they only gave you a syrup that took forever to work. There's lots of stuff that's not mainstream that Americans get from other cultures in time.  [Edited 8/20/09 20:33pm] | |

Naw, but my mom was a chain smoker. 3 packs a day, until I started putting those exploding joke thingies in her cigarettes... she woke up and blew up her lip one morning and woke me at like 5am beating me up with a platform wooden shoe complaining about her bloody lip... I cried and told her she was the reason for my asthma, she quit cold turkey a week later when I had a bad attack and was in the emergency room. Its been 22 years since she quit.  | |

But last weekend we went to Disneyland, and I rented her one of those jogger type strollers with 2 wheels in the back and one in the front. She needed it, we were walking from 8am until 11pm.
 in that case you need a wagon or break your day up into two halfs with a nap in the middle LOVE HARD. | |

I had to pull this thread up to the top again!!! Unfortunately I had to wait the whole week to comment on it while the FBI did my background check and I could become Deadflow3r.
Now that I am ALIVE I have to say; ANXIETY YOU MADE THIS THE FUNNIEST THREAD. I laughed everytime I read it. First time I read it I was on computer A at the library and my daughter was on computer B doing girlsgogames.com. I started laughing and laughed especially loud when I got to the part about the coffee drinking kid. I laughed so loud that I made the librarians in the other room who could NOT see me laugh. I laughed so loud that I let out a big toot and my daughter said loudly "MOM YOU JUST FARTED" in the library, which made me laugh louder"!!!! Thanks Anxiety, you made my day. Those two parents pulling a rickshaw was pretty funny too. There came a time when the risk of remaining tight in the bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom. Anais Nin. | |

Since this laughing episode at the library, every time I am especially grumpy my daughter says "Mommy remember the baby reading a book and drinking a coffee in the stroller?" To cheer me up and make me laugh. It works BECAUSE an vision of a one year old with a coffee in one hand and a cheesy paperback in the other comes to mind and that makes me laugh- again.
