How it's used
Parents often debate the safety and developmental impact of using this device. It is specifically designed for infants who are not yet walking independently, providing them with mobility before they have the necessary balance or muscle strength. Many modern pediatricians advise against its use due to the risk of accidents and potential delays in natural motor development.
