You're Too Big for a Stroller

And it's time for you to walk on your own. Laura Miller's photoblog Walk is a tour of children who are still in strollers, though they're really old enough to walk on their own. Miller gets hate mail for her work.

Sometimes a stroller is a much more attractive and economic choice than a teeny, tiny wheelchair. My sister didn't take her first steps until she was 3.

Wow with all the judgement. Some kids have medical conditions that prevent them from walking long distances (and apperently Disney or other big theme parks are only for healthy children. When I was about 5 years old (and walking perfectly fine on my own) my mom got my stroller out of storage for a few months when I broke my leg. Luckily there wasnt anything like this around at the time or she may have felt too ashamed to take me to the park or the zoo.

Also, is it just me or does the blogs hostility seems to be aimed at the kids, not the parents?

Parents who love feeling smugly superior to other parents must love this blog though.
