Do any of you have problems with children/young people on these flippin scooters? They are EVERYWHERE - you see Mums walking back from school with two-four of these scooters over their arms and taking them back at 3pm!

They get in the way!!!

    Kids and scooters ! Isn't that what being a young child is about , having fun and running about free of all the cares and woes that hit us when we " grow up " ? Maybe we're just jealous that we can no longer do the same thing ! Jillyb

    I'm very happy for children to have fun and freedom but just want them to be a little bit more careful around those of us unsteady on our feet. It is good to make children aware of others.

    How do tell a 4 year old for example that the person they are approaching is not too steady on their pins? Shouldn't we be aware that where there are children with bike and scooter we have to be a bit more alert rather than the opposite?

    Well I use a crutch and people always say be careful of that lady.Without the crutch I might not be so lucky. surely people must be careful of everyone if riding a scooter, bike or skateboard.On the whole the little children are careful and are aware so well done to their parents.

    Dogs on long leads is my pet peeve. No pun intended! Not only is it dangerous for the dogs because the owners have no control but I've seen dogs get tangled up and people end up tripping over. Obviously, in a park it's fine but people should be very careful walking their dogs near roads.

    It's the parents 'bribing' the kids to 'walk home' that's why they take 'em!

    Now the latest....

    kids in electric car-thingies :shock:
