Strollers offer a wonderful and convenient service to parents and caregivers.
The first priority in choosing a stroller should be safety.
To prevent tipping, choose a stroller that has a wide base so even when your child leans over there is no chance of the stroller tipping.
If you purchase a stroller that includes a recliner position check the stroller to make sure the stroller does not fall over backwards when the child reclines.
Remember to use the stroller seat belt at all times.
If your stroller has a basket, use that for purses and bags rather than hanging these items over the handles.
The basket on your stroller should be placed over the rear tires.
To prevent accidental folding of the stroller always use the locking device.
The brakes are used to limit the rotation of the tires when the stroller is at a complete stop.
Make sure you do not accidentally pinch your child's fingers when folding or unfolding your stroller. Be conscience of where those little hands are at all times.
If you are using a jogging stroller make sure you use the safety strap that fits around your wrist.
This can help prevent the stroller from getting away from you.
When you are in a parking lot make sure that the stroller is always next to you while unlocking the car.
Put the child into their car seat before storing the stroller.
Before you cross the street, position the stroller completely out of the street and make sure you are safely on the curb.
Check your stroller to make sure it is completely opened and in the locked position before putting your child in it.
A good habit to get into is pushing down on the seat with your hand to make sure it safe for your child.
When stopping on a hill, always remember to set the brakes on your stroller, even if you are just stopping for a moment.

Women's Liberation
(ContentDesk) July 20, 2004 -- Women continue to make steady progress towards equality in the workplace. Now women are making progress towards equality on the home front. How? By tapping into their resources, including their husbands. Increasingly, men and women are both juggling the demands of a career and a family. The demands are not equal, however.
Traditionally, women have been the primary caregivers. Still so today. Relinquish that role? Never. We have the natural instincts. But share that role? Now, that makes some sense.The challenge? Let's face it: Most men are not very domestic.
Organize the power tools? Mow the lawn? Great. But change the baby, that's a different story altogether. Not that men don't want to be helpful. They do (really). They just don't always know (or understand) what to do, especially concerning babies, particularly infants.Here's my secret: Help him liberate you.
Impossible? Absolutely not. Give him the tools to be helpful, starting...

Guilt-free exotic salmon leather products mean every part of the salmon is utilized, similar to the ancient tradition of the Northwest Coast Native peoples
November 19, 2003, Seattle, WA - Salmon leather?
Yes, it's true. For more than a hundred years, the skin of the salmon has been discarded, cast off , dumped and otherwise treated badly by the salmon canning industry in an effort to extract only the choicest morsels from nature's delicacy, Oncorhynchus keta, more commonly known as Chum Salmon.
Ivory Jack's Trading Company has worked over the last several years perfecting fine quality salmon leather that stands up to current rigorous fashion standards.
The leather is fascinatingly strong and has the look and feel of snake skin.
But, due to the formerly discarded nature of the material, it is guilt-free exotic leather more widely available to mass consumption.
The Pacific Northwest Coast Indians used the salmon, skin and all, for hundreds of years as they inhabited the salmon rich coastal lands of Alaska, British Columbia (Canada) and Washington State.
They traditionally tanned the hides...

Watch Out For Women With Purses!
Many of us have seen the emails that warn women not to park near a van; that your elbow is the strongest part of your body; be aware of your surroundings, etc.
These are all valid points.
However, when faced with real danger will you remember that email you skimmed last year?
Not likely. You need to practice self defense techniques.
Why do you think schools have fire drills? Hopefully by walking the children through an actual emergency, they will remember what to do.Your best defense is to avoid situations of vulnerability.
I am always amazed at the number of females walking or jogging alone, both early morning or late at night, when it is dark outside.
Or the mother with her baby in her arms, toddler in tow, carrying shopping bags.
Her position is screaming, "I am helpless against defending myself at this moment."
Ladies, use a shopping cart or stroller to keep your hands free.Your Purse Doubles As a WeaponYou have...
