    I always ride in a helmet, but thanks for the heads up here....I am in same
    situation with 3 year old, regularly handled and saddled, on and off her
    back for about 20 times, still have to remember this stuff can happen.  She
    had never shown any inclination to buck but one can never be too careful!
