congrats on the revelation. These have been out for a long time guys.. thanks for noticing. Mind getting some people who keep up to date on these things?

always amuses me when all the major news stations have the exact same story at the same time.

Yes, make every sport that has ever hurt a child illegal. That's the answer. Outlaw the wheel and anything with a stick or a ball. Running, too, is highly dangerous, and thousands of kids over the years have fallen and broken bones.

Oh I agree this is one of the dumbest concepts ever thought up and created for kids. I guess they are too lazy to walk now. I did have a kid to run into me and say excuse me. Then his mom came up and apologized to me. Then she reprimanded the kid for not watching what he was doing. That is a rarity and I thought I would post it.

But since the world is quite overpopulated...

...then I won't lose any sleep over any kids losing their life on these stupid shoes.

acauble1: You have some issues and may want to think about getting help.

dumbest idea for kids' shoes i've every heard.

Just gangs of fun.... walking around a shopping mall or any kind of store and having one of these kids roll right into you and fall down, only to have the STUPID-A.S.S "parent" yell at you saying that you should watch where you're going.

If the world wasn't overpopulated as it is, then perhaps I would actually be concerned with the safety of kids on these 'wheelies'. But since the world is quite overpopulated...

...then I won't lose any sleep over any kids losing their life on these stupid shoes.
