I thought I was giving my kids the best childhood ever until my 4-year-old asked why we didn't own a 'bigger golf cart' (www.businessinsider.com)

Yeah the why is laziness I guess? Why walk when you can drive a smaller electric buggy for small distances and a big car for big distances?

Golf carts make sense in retirement communities - presumably the companies behind them are "growing the market" by targeting families as an alternative to push chairs and walking? Also I'm guessing these are American neighbourhoods which still are designed around cars than true walkability?
