Although its association with wealth dates back to the invention of the first pram in the 1700s, in recent decades, four-figure strollers have become not just status symbols but cultural identifiers. There are sleek jogging strollers for serious athletes, impossibly compact strollers for parents determined to travel internationally with pre-ambulatory children, and those featuring a ride-on kick board or second, less “babyish” seat, designed with older siblings in mind. Despite the many models available, we are all familiar with the image of a harried mother struggling to use a stroller of any kind in a public space that does not accommodate it. There are anti-stroller evangelists, fervently preaching the gospel of baby wearing and attachment parenting. All of these attitudes, seemingly about an object, are also revealing of how we believe parents and children ought to move through the world.Object Lessons is published in partnership with an essay series in The Atlantic.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 165mmItem Length: 121mmAuthor: Amanda Parrish MorganGenre: Language & ReferenceBook Series: Object LessonsTopic: Philosophy & Spirituality, Social Sciences, Literary Criticism, Society & CultureType: TextbookRelease Year: 2022 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
