Who invented these?


One day, someone woke up and thought it would be a brilliant idea to invent this shopping cart that children will love. Well, thank God for that person thinking about the children but were they thinking about the parents??

First of all, those things are impossible to maneuver, making a regular trip to the grocery store longer than it ought to be. Second, is that the space for groceries is so small that you have to get a second regular cart to fit in all the things that you want to buy. Now how is that convenient when you are the only adult present? Then I start to think about the germs that other children have left behind in those carts. I know. I have problems.

Gosh!!! Anyhoo. I guess it is one of those things that we do just to get our kids to shut up so we can shop in peace. Except for those times when the child decides that he/she is tired of sitting in the car and they want out, leaving you pushing it around without a passenger and feeling utterly ridiculous.
