I'm sure Thomas Friedman could find a way to justify this

An enterprising Chinese man devises a homemade baby seat.

We had something like that back in the hill country of North Carolina when I was growing up (except without the crate).

  1. OK, even I get nauseous over that photograph. The father has earned a beating from an angry crowd.

  2. What is it with the Chinese and their kids? Every other week there's some child-endangering photo out of China. You'd think people are only allowed to have one child would be a little more careful.

  3. When I was a kid, it wasn't unusual to be pulled down a snowy road behind a truck, on a '40s car hood. The ones from the 40's were the best, they kinda had sides, to keep you in. These days parents use 4 wheelers to pull their kids thru the snow on big inner tubes.

    That's not to condone this guy, just sayin'.

  4. Oh, I understand completely, r-man. The fact is, I did similar things myself as kid.

    But the picture of that Chinese father simply screams "IMBECILE!"

  5. Rebecca: Maybe that guy is in violation of the one-child rule and was trying to, you know, get into compliance with it.
