I too have used baby gates that were made of a fencing. These suck. All of my kids were able to climb them. Then I found one at Toy's R Us that is perfect. It is a solid gate (not see through though) and none of my kids can climb it. The cost was about $30. You can find these gates almost anywhere baby gates are sold. However, I found Toy's R Us to be the better price. Erin [Posted in FML 5717]
