    Maybe its just me, but was out with the young lad in the buggy.

    I came across three other dads also pushing buggy's. All of them

    were pushing thier buggy's with one hand(one was on he's mobile,so he's

    allowed). Is it just me or is this the right "cool" way for us dads to push

    buggys about.

    Who cares how others push them? Too much time, my friend. Too much time!

    Eh..

    A father should be out working, leave the rearing (and buggy pushing) to the mothers tbh.

    :pac:

    Unless of course the bloke is using the kid to help him pull birds.
    In which case it's perfectly acceptable.

    The four of you should get together and start a book club or a sewing circle.

    I think my next thread will be...."experts on boards.ie slagging people who express opinions"

    I'll think twice before posting another thread.

    Don't mind them, keep on posting.
    Although to be fair, if you only wanted serious replies perhaps you should have posted
    in a parenting / childcare forum rather than in AH.

    Sorry about that. Didn't know which was the right section. Only on the a few weeks.

    Thanks for the tip.

    OP you never said where the other hand was located. I always like to keep one hand free for ball scratching, preferably my own.

    Don't take it so seriously

    I would think though that the other hand was scratching balls. Isn't that what most men are always doing

    2009 and we're still living in the 50s. Men who push buggies with one hand consider themselves too cool to use both.

    And as for those who said the mothers should push buggies, I know where I'd like to push you! I bet you're all still single :p

    I assumed this thread was about one handed fathers...

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test

    I'm new here too so I won't slate you :)
    Me n the missus ("the missus and I" for grammar police) were only talking bout this the other day. I reckon it's a 'cool' thing.

    And this didn't get enough credit :D

    I push mine with one hand, although #2 is nearly out of it now.

    Keeps the other hand free for extending my middle digit in the direction of Judgemental Johns.
