Canana bans baby walkers

Heath Canada announced a ban on the sale of baby walkers. (msnbc.com) They say it's for the protection of children who can't comprehend where they're navigating or know how to avoid dangers, but I think it's to protect children from neglegent parents who put their child in one and then don't keep a close eye on them until they hear the crying because the baby ran into the sharp edge of a table or tried to go down the stairs. (I've always thought that a lightweight adult version would help older people with mobility problems.)
