Are baby walkers really dangerous?
Yes. Each year, more than 16,000 children are treated in hospital emergency rooms for baby walker-related injuries. DO NOT USE BABY WALKERS WITH WHEELS. There are several alternatives on the market that are stationary. Look for one that is on a stable, non-moveable base and place it away from stairs, hot appliances and window blind or drapery cords. Remember that children should never be left unattended – whether using a walker alternative or not.
