Think the dad should’ve given it a run first but it sounds like me dealing with mine.

my dad would have told me to stop being a pussy if i was scared.


My mom would have told me the same. My parents once bungee corded me to the ice chest raft when we were tubing with a large group. They figured I wouldn’t get left behind by anyone if I was with the beer. They forgot to calculate what would happen when the tube flipped over and I was still tied to it. This is tame.

Everyone clutching their pearls about this are the reason kids today are so soft.

at that age, the neighborhood kids would have already had that slide set up and everyone would have been jumping off that cliff. Probably wouldve named it Thrill Hill

This thread is full of what's making the younger generation helpless lackies....helicopter parents.

My dad wouldn't have even been there in the 80s. I'd have been doing that all day long without a parent in sight and I was better off for it.

Ever go skiing? They have kids younger than that doing much more dangerous stuff.

Yep, and those little frickers are skiing circles around the rest of us without a care in the world.

It’s amazing what you can accomplish with a low center of gravity, low moment of inertia, low mass, and zero fear of injury.
