Sad that this young fellow lost his life at work . Young or old , covered by comparison or not , accidents happen in work places every day, and not just farms . My question is , how can a young person get exsperence operating a skid , or tractor loader , if they are forbidden to run one . For myself , farm raised , we started running farm tractors to pull wagons and cultivate at 8, and had become competent operators , that could do most any tractor related kid by 11 or 12. I even hired out to a Dairyfarm when I was 13 , and spent the summer cutting , raking , and baling hay. Now a days my parents would be guilty of some crime of child neglect , and the farmer I worked for guilty of child labour laws, but I loved it , and I was well trained . This is just a sad accident, and remember , more kids will get killed having fun with motor bikes , ATV , and boats , then will get killed working. But that's okey , because, it is a leisure activitie , and not work . To die at work is bad , to get kill at play , is some how acceptable ?

I was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. Not a place one would associate with farms or farm machinery. I credit my parents for instilling a lot of good values, a respect for learning, a knowledge of various skills and a little knowledge of farming in me, amo
