What kind of idiocy is that, anyway? When I was a kid, I'd never have even dreamed about riding UNDER the cart. Inside, yeah, but I was happier pushing the damn thing than riding in it.
Re: the tweenagers in strollers: This is a real-life embodyment of an old joke (translated from Yiddish) about the stereotypical overprotective mother, pushing her kid in a wheelchair. Friend meets her and says "Oy, nebech! Can't he walk?" Mother answers, "Of course he can walk, but isn't it wonderful? HE DOESN'T HAVE TO!"
Never thought I'd live to see that one in reality.
