See, that's the problem with instructions. No explanation as to why.

Oh, that's no good. They didn't specify HOW to remove the
child. Cable hoist? Block and tackle? 15 gal shop vac? Food
processor? Hobart mixer? How will we ever know?

I have to confess to be one of those folks who broke that rule
frequently 25 yrs or so ago.

Baby is sleeping- so it is much easier to hold the top of the handles
while 'breaking' the bar that holds them apart with the other hand
while baby still sleeps in the stroller. There was a button that
needed to be pressed to unlock the bar. Once you raised the center a
bit,it would stay unlocked.

Then hold the baby in one arm, and while holding the handle in the
same hand as your bag of groceries, [the same side that is holding the
bag of baby-crap like bottles, diapers, etc] your knee can push that
bar up to finish folding the stroller.

I hope they are better designed today- but I can see how a company
might want to cover their ass by telling folks to do it differently.

That makes it too hard to get them in the overhead storage when flying.

How many Daddys get to buy a F-350 dump truck?

Folding strollers?

*Folding* strollers?

You mean that I didn't have to keep buying bigger vehicles
to fit
those full size strollers in?

That double stroller was huge!

Yeah, most folks don't haul grand parents around.

Yes, that is a good one.

One of my favs was on the insert in a box of roofing nails. I've posted
it here before. Good opportunity to dust off.

I don't get it.
Are they saying 'no nailguns' or 'no hammers' -- or 'only use on
roofs'? EG

Don't let Stevie Wonder use your nailgun.

Sounds like good advice to me.

The alternative sounds somewhat counter-productive.

I think they make folding double stollers. * Umbrella style.- Hide quoted text -

I was kidding about needing the bigger vehicles.

Actually we did have a folding double, but it wasn't an umbrella type.

It was a double "long" as opposed to a side by side and each seat
reclined. I think it cost me over $200 and that was 18 years ago.

But think how much your kids have cost you since!

Something like this:

Looks like a tank. It would be great for running down little children.
