[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 734579, member: 1550"] I was in a wealthy suburb, not the city. Nobody there would have used a lawn mower that wasn't easy to push. Heck, many had landscaping services! Some never mowed. I wasn't sheltered at all. My parents didn't care what I saw. I just think rural Canada and rich suburban U.S.A. were different worlds. I don't know much about the city either, at least not the poorer part of the city. In my childhood, the people I knew we're pretty well off so they could afford to skip things such as old fashion mowers. Money changes things. I didn't meet less wealthy people until I was a young adult (and they didn't use cloth diapers or push hand mowers with no motor). But they did have to be more mindful of their finances. Considerably so. [/QUOTE]
