Parent-child parking spots.

Why was I completely unaware that these existed until about two days ago? I had heard them being debated in the past but had yet to realise they actually were around.

I can understand, which doesn't necessarily mean I agree with them, to an extent how some women may struggle with those monstrously huge prams they love buying so much but it kind of irked me that I saw women getting out without prams but just with toddlers. Toddlers have nice healthy legs and it doesn't seem like anything really tires them out so I really really don't understand the point of them at all.

What also bothers me is that at some point when these things were being debated, someone, somewhere, *must've* made a comparison between these and disabled parking spots. You know they only difference being that one is needed and the other one feels like it may have been created just to satisfy shrieking harpy women.

Am I overreacting to this or do other people see these parking spots as being an incredibly stupid idea?
