I’ve got four kids — two 11-month-old twins, a three-year-old, and a five-year-old. (The older two are ambulatory.) When the better half and I took our kids to Niagara Falls, *all four* of them went into strollers. As you might guess, this was so none of them went into harm’s way. At the mall, you also might put your kids into strollers if there’s crowds, so you don’t get separated. (As well, children walk more slowly than adults, so they can get run over.) Some children are more prone to wandering away, so a stroller discourages this. Also, if you have a kid in a stroller as soon as they disembark from a car, you don’t have to worry about them getting run over by a car in a parking lot. Basically, keeping a kid in a stroller eases a lot of safety concerns. The alternative might be a safety harness, but I’ve heard passersby can be really hostile when they witness it. You could hold your child’s hand — but those little hands can easily slip from your big ones. It’s a risk.
