Because of my son's physical limitations he cannot ride in a shopping cart normally. At one year old he either has to be pushed in his stroller or sit in his infant car seat in the basket. By requiring major retailers like Wal-mart or Target to supply specialty carts mothers and fathers can shop while their special needs child rides comfortable. There is a company in Alabama that makes these carts, and I would love to see them all over the nation. http://www.carolinescart.com
