[blparent] baby gates question

[Tammy]

Hi,

It doesn’t sound like the steps are the problem here, and I think the child is too old for a gate anyway.  A lock or a doorknob cover would be good though.

Let me tell you what my brother and his wife did.  They never did get a
gate, but taught their daughters to go down the stairs backwards.  The kids
would go to the top of the stairs, sit down and then crawl backwards to the
first step.  
Others I know, have gates but they never open them, the adults just step
over. V
