My son was a big boy for his age. I let him mow the lawn when he was young. I told him the same thing, when using an old school lawn mower that has zero safety switches. Don't get off the mower until everything stops. Both my kids learned how to drive using riding mowers at a young age. I will ask, do you kids have seat time on a riding mower? Today's riders are almost idiot proof. Old tractors are not. I consider old tractors, which I own 2, death machines. No ROP, no seat belts. Annually I hear on local news where an old fart gets killed using his antique tractor. They get ran over, they flip the tractor.
Would I let a grandson use my antique tractors? HECK NO. Would I let my grandson mow with my riding mowers? Yes. Would I trust my grandson to use my new Kubota? NO WAY, Grandson doesn't have any seat time on a riding mower.
Keep in mind any damage your kids cause will cost you. Are you planning on having liability insurance on both your kids and personal property they damage??
