I do not get how some are so concerned about the way others are raising their kids. If she wants to teach the kid how to mow the yard, let her. Everyone nowadays thinks that they know what is better for a kid than their own parents. Yes, there are instances that this may be true, but most of the time it is a nosy neighbor, passer by, or Johnny do good that is in the wrong and does not know what is good for the kid, but they just have to put their two cents into the pot.
My old landlords 8 year old kid mowed the yard on his ZTR better than I could, because he had been mowing with dad for years. He always wanted to drive or ride on my tractors when I was there, or drive my vehicles around the place. There are too many kids today that go to drivers education class that have never driven anything in their lives.
I do not have kids yet, but I am sure that within a few years I will, and you can bet that they will learn how to ride on something safely, drive safely, shoot guns safely, etc before others think they should be.
There is currently a case in Montgomery County MD that two parents are in trouble because their 10 year old and 8 year old kids were at the park, three blocks away from the house, by themselves. The kids knew how to take care of themselves, but the nosy neighbor called the cops on the kids, causing a huge legal battle now between the parents, the cops, and child protective services. The last time the kids were picked up at the park, the cops would not let them call their parents, instead took them on a three hour ride around, and did not contact their parents until almost four hours after they were picked up.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
