Re: [RC] Kids, ponies and distance riding... Get a grip people - Barbara McCrary

Actually, it was Joe Long who has long been a proponent of AERC establishing
a minimum age for children.  And I have long disagreed with him.  That's one
of the roads this discussion has taken.  Possibly it's time to shut it down,
as neither Joe nor I will be dissuaded by the other's beliefs.

Where does it say in the AERC charter that the AERC is supposed to be a
"child welfare agency".  That function is a GOVERNMENT responsibility.

Lets

leave it there.



Did *I* say that AERC should be a child welfare agency??? Don't put words

in

my mouth. I was just responding that someone said, they did not see any
children being FORCED to ride rides, and I know otherwise. The other

comment

was "parents out there think we know our kids pretty well and know what

they

are capable of ". And I hope that is true within endurance riding, but the
point was, some parents do NOT make the best decisions with their

children,

and the children have no choice. (this is where Howard is yelling at his
computer "can anyone say camel jockeys???") ;-)   I never said one way or
the other, what stand AERC should take. Just bringing up some thoughts to
ponder. Not sure why you got so defensive.......
