baby-leashing: the next generation
Well… at least now I know that if my theoretical child does take after me, and THIS doesn’t work… I have options.
Seriously though, the makers of The Babykeeper are trying to be all innocent-like — “Oooooooh… it’s just for keeping babies safe and secure while you have a poo… we’re not evil… here, have some candy, little girl… heh heh heh…”
But really, we know what this means. We ALL know.
The Babykeeper is for ALWAYS.
Strap the kid up, slap it on the kitchen door, and BAM! you’re good to go. Make supper, watch TV, drink copiously — WHATEVER.
YOU. ARE. FREE.
Heck, you don’t even need to take the kid down for breastfeeding. Just stand up next to the door, whip open your shirt, and Bob’s your uncle.
Now you just need to get a door on wheels…
…
I’m so going to hell.

Do these things “bounce?” If yes then there’s some delicious irony in the name of your source.

This is progress. If you look carefully at the picture, up between the straps, you’ll see what was used before The Babykeeper.

Do they have these for husbands? employees? I definately need adult size ones, preferably with a laptop holder.

These are clearly brought to you by the same folks who were once hoisted up and suspended by their underwear when they were short, geeky, high school freshmen. It’s all about revenge. Pick on someone smaller.
Still, I definitely see the usefulness of these things, especially in learninghorses’ world.

Now, I must be the voice of disagreement here. These won’t be for “always”.
Thats what JollyJumpers are for. And Exersaucers. And baby swings for the reeeeeeaaaalllly tiny ones. And playpens..and closets..and basements……
Mwaaahahahahahahahahaha…cough cough cough
Seriously, slap a baby in a Jolly Jumper and watch those guys GO. Its a hoot, leaves your hands free and sometimes they even fall asleep in one.
Not that i would condone such a thing. That would be bad. Right?

birchsprite: Nothing quite so relaxing as a good maniacal laugh. Just roll with it.
RJ: Not certain if they bounce, but I’m the certain judicious addition of some bungee cords would solve that quickly.
Jason’s Dad: Oh… I remember. [Sound of memories being suppressed brutally.]
learninghorses: I think we have a potential product spin-off. A cup-holder too would be nice.
lightspring: So who are the babies going to pick on then? Wood nymphs?
Alison: Don’t be ashamed. Some days I wish I had a Jolly Jumper that was me-sized.
