Irresponsible Teens, a Mule and a Tree =

[GARY]

Yikes! I'm glad she's okay enough to be mowing for the forseeable future!

[Eric Pence]

Kids will be kids just thank God no one was hurt . This might turn out to be a great lesson for them

[Justin]

Glad to hear everybody is ok. I got a sick feeling in my stomach when I saw the title.

I have an old reel mower you can borrow!

[JerryC]

Glad nobody was hurt.Even more glad all my teenage daughters(4) are all grown up now and married with kids so that they can see how it feels to be a parent.

Hard lesson learned, glad everyone came out with minor injuries.

Take that lawnmower from her and hand her the weed eater or sling-blade, she kinda has a smirk going in that picture.

The smirk quickly faded. There were eventually a few tears involved. I had a discussion with each of them - my kids and the others. I don't want any of them to take it lightly, and want them to understand that it could have easily resulted in much more serious injuries.

The wife and I understand that we aren't completely absolved of responsibility either.

I understand believe me, one son and 3 girls. But there is the trust thing, we trust that they will be responsible like we tried to teach.

used to call it Trust Development earnings. she just took out a sizable loan, and is now building her trust equity back up!

again, very happy that it is just a learning experience and everyone is OK. Can't imagine how far your heart jumped when they came up the drive

Sounds like you got it covered Michael. The joys of raising kids!

I meant to attach this picture to my previous post...

Dude - I think the geneva convention addresses this kind of stuff. You better get her out of that flower bed or you'll get yourself in big trouble. CPS is probably headed your way right now.

The machine can be fixed, glad she is ok... Now you can fab you up a custom rollcage... and might want to install one in her future car... ;-)

[Dr. D]

Glad they are ok my friend.....sounds like they get it after the tears.

[Fritz]

Glad to hear nobody was seriously injured.

Four wheelers and mules aren't toys. They are made to work with. I tried to teach my kids that and if they didn't listen (when I saw them and I know you didn't, then I would tell them to get them off and no more. Hope they learned. Maybe I think.

Have a niece that has scars today after running a gator through a Gaucho five strand barb wire fence. Lucky it didn't cut her head off.

Just trying to let you guys know from my experiences, in hopes a kid doesn't get hurt and learns how to ride one properly. Sometimes they listen, I think????

Glad God looked out for them.

[Smart]

Glad to hear they are OK Michael......scary deal no doubt.

[Mary]

YIKES!!!! I am so glad there were no serious injuries. I think this will make an impact for her future driving....and if anything good came out of it, that would be it.
