    Pediatricians have long warned against using baby walkers, and consumers groups joined them to call for a ban back in 1992.https://n.pr/2QvY2Hf

        Well, you wonder why someone would use them on a second floor with stairs. Must have some good insurance on those kids.

        I decided not to use one because it seems better for babies to naturally build their core muscles making them less likely to fall later on given they’ll have that extra strength (worked for me and yoga, balance is so much better). It’s the same reason I won’t use a Bumbo chair.

        We should ban steps while we're at it. Ban everything so we're safe from ourselves. How about parents actually watch their children and we don't need to ban anything? Go play lawn darts, NPR.

        Anecdotes aren’t evidence but my niece has been using this for couple of months and she loves it. Talking about afft motor functions, she can climb a 2 foot bed up and down for 50 times a day without breaking a sweat. Ban inattentive parents!

        Manufacture should offer accessories that could attach to walker that wouldn’t allow walker to go through a door. Could prevent stair issue.

        In Canada its ban, we in the US we love money so much and hate anything common sense law that protect people so this is not going anywhere. Specifically with the embarrassment we hv in DC, conservatives will scream infringing on their rights to buy whatever they want.
