What if the ADA was instead called the “Baby Stroller Accessibility Act”? Or the “Elderly Accessibility Act”?
Or do you want to slap on a remote-controlled exoskeleton on a toddler?
- fastball 3y agoThe elderly who need a wheelchair I think can be lumped in with the "disabilities" crowd already, not really a separate category. Caregivers carrying children too small to walk seems like a better solution than ensuring all bridges have ramps, but that's just my opinion.
- dolmen 3y agoYou're obviously not a caregiver who has to carry both the child(ren) and the stroller in the stairs.
- fastball 3y agoI've done that a lot actually? Regardless, I don't think our society should be specifically structured around certain use-cases, and I think it is wildly impractical to try to cater to all of them in all scenarios.
