Couple's 'wine walks' with baby spark mixed reactions

A popular momfluencer, Lauren Miller, has sparked a debate among parents with her latest video. In the clip, she and her husband pour glasses of wine and prepare for a walk with their baby in a stroller. Lauren joyfully captions the video, “Wine walks in the burbs 4 life.” While some viewers enjoy the light-hearted humor, many parents expressed concerns about mixing alcohol with parenting. Commenters questioned the safety of drinking while caring for a baby. One person asked, “Is this not public intoxication?” Others worried about potential emergencies, suggesting that a sober adult should always supervise the child. However, some defended Lauren and pointed out that one glass of wine does not necessarily lead to alcoholism. They criticized the notion that enjoying a small drink while walking with a baby is inappropriate. Comments made light of the situation, with some calling it a “walktail.” Lauren responded to both the supportive and critical comments. She appreciated the fun remarks but had a cheeky reply for the critics: “I hope you step in dog poop today.” Many viewers noted that alcohol laws vary by state in the U.S., and some reminded others to check the regulations about drinking in public, especially for those in Australia.
