My response is: A two year old child in airports, malls or public events like parades should be in a stroller...especially if you are dealing with more than one child...end of story...
At two voice commands can be taught and obeyed, but it is a challenge...
To many mothers today...their children are the ‘afterthought’ to their day and plans.....in many cases not even that.
Further...since we place no value on the sanctity of life today...why would they think otherwise?
