i don't know about your parents (or grandparents) but mine
had baby buggies (perambulators) when we were little. my
grandmother (now almost 101) still has the wicker buggy she
had for my mom as a baby.
strollers are a fairly recent innovation, since the mid-70s
at least.
but i do think buggies were only good up to 3 or 4 years
old... of course, people rarely walked that far with kids back
then either.
