The next generation's feet

Am I the only one who get irritated by these new trainers with wheels in the heels that seem to be hugely popular with kids these days? I was in a train station yesterday and I got slammed into about a half a dozen times by kids wearing them. Perhaps it that I'm turning into a grumpy old man!

Independent of my annoyance there is one thing I've noticed about them, or perhaps more accurately the kids that wear them. Have you ever watched anyone with them on try to walk? They inevitably end up walking on their tippy toes all the time. Surely that can't be good for them.
