Should this be encouraged
 
My daughter last night out of the blue announced that she fancies the idea of having a bike.

She knows the score in that she has to do a CBT, and is limited to 125 unless she wants to do a DAS or pass her test and 2 years on 33 horses.

Should this attitude be encouraged, remembering she was the individual who hid my keys one rainy afternoon to make sure I stayed in DIYing. and then sodded off to Thailand for 3 months without telling me about the keys.

And if she does pass her DAS she will want my bike...........

Hmmm justification for a return to the dark side. keep SV for her and Blade for me.

I voted "No" because this needs to be resolved to your satisfaction :lol:

See - i sit nicely on the fence - don't encourage her but don't discourage her!!

Tell her if she wants to do it she'll have to buy her own bike! :D

yes

Bud 23-06-05 12:56 PM

Don't do either - just be supportive with her choice.

I said 'no' to encourage, but if she wants to learn give her all the help & support you can - I was told 'I couldn't get a bike' by my parents, so I went behind their back & got one anyway... Much better to be in the know, than not IMHO :wink:

Definately. I got three kids and would love nothing more than to see each and all of 'em on two wheels! Imagine the sound when we all set out for a family ride....YEAH! :lol:

No. Let her choose her own path in life. If she chooes biking then encourage and advice, if she doesnt, then get her to pack her bags and leave imediately :shock: :lol: ...seriously, if she dont, then fine, leav her be.

No. Let your daughter live her life and make her choices.
