to not understand why my SIL still uses a double buggy for her 6 and 4 year olds? when i asked MIL about it she replied 'well she does take them out all day in the half term and they get tired' Hmm

I think you're SIL must have an impressive pair of 'guns'

Anyway, I've never met a lazy 4 year old.

And why didn't you ask your SIL?

How do her kids feel about this? My DS left his buggy when he was just over two years old and wouldn't be seen dead in it after.

Do they have any SN? If not YANBU get rid of the buggy now! If they get tired they can sit on a seat or the floor like other kids. Got rid of my dd buggy at 3.5, she was getting too heavy to push, plus she was tall and her legs would drag under it, was not having that anymore.

did ask SIL she gave same answer has just gone on holiday and has taken double buggy with her! thought i was going mad when i saw her with it the other day, but she doesnt seem to think that it is unusual, and has even mentioned that she will use it in the winter holiday she goes on in nov!! when oldest child will be nearer 7! each to their own, but i agree my DD age 2 reluctantly gets into her buggy lol!

I wish my kids stayed in the buggy longer ...I would get things done so much faster !

Here in the US kids seem to stay in the stroller for much longer ~I don't have an issue with that :)
