Kinda funny but a lot of the farms around here shut down and sold off by kids who did ride on tractors with dad and were around livestock. Most of em were "helping" with chores at age 4 or 5. By the time they were 18 they were spending long hours in the fields and doing chores at 6AM. The ran as far as they could from the farm so they could work a 8-5 job having weekends and holidays off like most people. So that type of activity doesn't ensure that a kid will grow up loving farming. In fact of the kids I knew in 72/73 who were farm kids 3 stayed on the farm and are still farming today. Most ran as far as they could and their dad's farms were sold off years ago.
Bout a month or so a guy I know ran over his 5 year old daughter. They did save here but it was touch and go for a few days. I haven't talked to her dad sense it happened, he works in town and farms, busy guy. Then add in the time in the hospital and such. But from what I understand she fell off a tractor while he was feeding.
I have no problem giving a kid a ride on a tractor but I never work while I'm doing it! If I had a tractor with a buddy seat then I might let a kid ride with while I was working.
