The new "status symbol" in my neighborhood is stay at home moms who have nannys and maid service. They don't have to work or raise the kids or clean the house. They spend their days cruising to the Starbucks with their $500 stroller hauling their kids with stupid names like "Hunter" and "Colin".

I see those kids in those fancy strollers and I hate them; I didn't have wheels like that until I was 35. lol

I just saw a yuppie mom with one of those one of those $500 jogging strollers at our local walking path around a lake.

This mom had upped the ante : She was pushing her ~4 yr old boy in the stroller -- while rollerblading at high speed.

I have to say, the kid looked miserable. Every pass around the lake that I saw them, he continued to look miserable. He didn't even smile at the adorable labrador retriever I was walking, as most kids in strollers do.

Finally, the last turn around the lake, the mom-on-skates and boy reappeared, but this time the $500 stroller had vanished (packed into a parked SUV), and boy was riding a little bicycle ahead of mom. This time he looked much happier.
