[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When I was a teenager I tore a ligament and ended up in the hospital for several days. My hospital roommate was a guy in his 20s who'd been in a motorcycle accident. He was in excruciating pain and it left quite an impression on me that the fun associated with riding a scooter or motorcycle might come at a high cost. So if my kid mentioned that he was buying a Vespa or thinking about it I'd have a hard time not sharing that story again, but at the end of the day it wouldn't be my decision. Adult children are responsible for their own decisions just like other adults. [/quote] I’m sorry that happened to him. Motorcycles—especially ones that go on the highway—are a bit of a different story than a scooter that is only used on sparsely driven side roads, but I understand your personal reservations. [/quote]
