If you go to any website or visit an online community where people buy and sell used items, you will probably find such a product as a baby walker.
And, as a rule, supply significantly exceeds demand, meaning that people often want to get rid of them rather than buy them.
Why? The whole point is that this "device", so to speak, costs a lot of money, but at the same time is absolutely useless, if not dangerous.
Walkers are not needed by the children themselves, but by their parents, who think that they have bought a useful “developmental toy” for the child.
In practice, you will not find a single study whose results would confirm that walkers are beneficial.
On the contrary, the Internet is full of evidence that the baby was injured while using this device.
By the way, in addition to walkers, experienced mothers included such things as a changing table and baby scales in the list of expensive but useless things.
The changing table is often left unused, since the baby is most often changed in bed or in arms, and it is enough to weigh the baby once a month at a pediatrician's appointment.
Earlier we talked about why you shouldn’t praise your child too often.
