[QUOTE="dreamer, post: 58605, member: 1697"] I am glad he was not hurt seriously. Yes, I require helmets, too. How ironic my son lost his eye after I refused to permit him to be at a friends house who has a BB gun and I refuse to permit any fireworks or firecrackers........(my son lost his eye playing with a hammer at a friends house)- note I always refused to permit such activities, LOL, not just after he lost his eye. My difficult child and I witnessed a child be hit by a car while riding a bike once, and it stuck in her mind, and she never rode again. :-( I do have to say I scream and yell a LOT around here about both pedestrians and bikes. A bike ran into me, I was sitting still waiting for a train at train gates that were down- yewesh. and I have had several people (adults included) come up alongside me on my right on the highway and while I am turning right, they come up from behind and then try to turn left in front of me. It is quite scary especially in a 50 mph zone. We also have several kids here on bikes, maybe 14 or so yrs old who love to play "chicken" with the cars. I am surprised there are not more injuries. Couple this with new drivers aged 16 and it is a recipe for disaster. I am sorry your child was riding safely and got hurt. That is so scary! And I am sure it was awful for your husband, too, to witness it. Many many hugs. To all of you! [/QUOTE]
