Saga Continues

Question? What do you do when the kids don't listen?

Answer: Still working on something that will work

I have taught two girls how to ride a bike and it always goes like this. Dad: "the secret to riding a two wheeler is speed, you have to ride really fast and you will be OK, go slow and you will crash, but do fast and you will stay up." Girls: "What about stopping?" Dad: "you will figure that out pretty quick on your own." Girls: "Dad that doesn't sound right." Dad: "it is." Girls: "MOM! Dad's tring to kill me!" and then it was a slow process.

Now I decided to teach Rugby while Mom is away. Dad: "the secret to riding a two wheeler is speed, you have to ride really fast and you will be OK, go slow and you will crash, but do fast and you will stay up." Rugby: "OK"

One big push and he had it.

He did figure the stopping thing eventually.

Let Emerson out of the cage and teach Rugs how to stop. If that doesn't work, put Rugby in the cage and teach Emerson how to ride a bike.

Yeah Rugs! Those short clips of him remind me of when Forest Gump starts to run. He just runs and runs and never stops. Hopefully Rugs did figure out the stopping thing. Nice work Tim!
