if i have to take my son out of the house i have to put him in a push chair i cannot keep him under controll as hard as i try and as much as i know he needs to walk and exersie i cant do it on my own

the problem is brendan is too big for a normal push chair he is 25 kg (4 stone 64lb i think i got that conversion right ) and a bout the size of a "normal"5or even 6 yr old

where do i get a biger push chair in the uk is there some thing im not doing that i should be doing ?

its not even that he need the chair hes fully able to walk i just need to be able to keep him safe and this is the only way i can think of dose any one have any idea s am i being rambalie and not making any sence ? im gonna stop writing and hope you get what i mean

oo be for i do if this is in the wrong plce could a mod or who ever put it in the right plce for me ?

I've seen really big ones that people attatch to their bikes

Hi, I've seen people go about with their kids on a sort of harness/leash type combo. Don't know where you'd get one but it might be worth googling for.

are we talking about a baby carriage or a wheelchair?

we have tryed harmesses and he is even worse when we put them on he gose doolally (has a temper tantrum ) then starts hitting and bitting and i think the rains might hurt him even tho they are the right size

we did look in to the buggys that go on the back of a bick be he wouldnt stay in there even with the harness on

i might be barking up the wrong tree here i dont know i just need a bigger pushchair

gaaaaaaaa i cant keep pushing him in the little one we have its so tiring and for him uncomertable

am i the only person who is annoyed that everything is made for kids half his size ? even his cloths are 5-6 grumble grumble grumble

ummmm for the usa peeps on here i mean a stroller for got you guys call everything some thing else

thats a good idea ty i didnt even see there was one i will copy and past it there ty again for all your help

25kg is more like 55lbs. Man, that's a big kid. I was only 51lbs at 10 years old.

I did a search on strollers (that's what we call them in the US) that hold up to 80lbs. It told me that most of the "jogging" stollers hold up to 80lbs. I found this stroller:
http://www.amazon.com/InStep-Cruiser-Do ... B000EI2NTY
It says it holds up to 100lbs.

Could always go the "silence of the lambs" route with the board strapped to a hand cart and do the whole straightjacket/muzzle/strapped down while standing thing.

Might not be too comfortable but would definately make an impression

not a bad idea but i think the the sosial would have a problem with it lol

i had a look at that push hair but i dont think its the right kind as it is a doubble thats the only reason its just righ but thank you for the link it might be worth me looking in to 3 weeler s

its given me some thing to think on

and the sosial have said they will send me a fourm to get a chair /stroller thats big enought but it may take up to a yr but its alll good y all for your help

Keep on at social services. Do you have a socail worker responsible for your son? If so, get onto them and keep calling them until you get a result. A year is a long time to wait if you need to get to Asdas today.
There is a big problem in social services in the UK. It seems as though the more vocal you are, the more attention and help you get. We are big on equal rights in the UK, take advantage of that fact.
Your local council have an obligation to help you and your son. Keep pushing them.

Have you looked at the NAS website?

Hi

I was looking into this a while ago for my son.

Maclaren make a buggy for children (tested up to 110lbs/50kg) called the Major Elite http://www.maclarenmajor.com/

It's pretty expensive (the cheapest I saw was around £200), but you should be able to get one via your health visitor, or second hand

we got i sorted got a macalren and it fits him wonderfull even got it for half price ! !! !
