Pool has dedicated lost and found for our club...

We went to the trampoline park... my kid had a blast but soo not coordinated at that type of sport. Can't do a flip to save his life. Head to the pool and he is a fish.

He doesn't want to try with the training wheels? He'll get it eventually! I think I was 8 when I finally got it. Some of those 16" bikes are really heavy and difficult, so that's probably part of it. My son's old 12" Trek is steel and weighs as much as my higher end steel 650b MTB, but his new 20" is significantly lighter & easier for him.

Thanks for the advice. Sadly this it's with training wheels...

He's also really small for his age so I'm sure that doesn't help (even with a nice bike it's still surprisingly heavy).

I have always wondered how you lose a coat, and for the love of god you make me put is name in everything instead of chucking it in lost and found why don't you look at the tag and return it?

His vertical leap is so pathetic that he has trouble jumping rope...


...because he can't clear the rope.




What are your kids bad at?

Get him a strider bike . He'll learn the balance part real quick with this.

He loves his strider bike (and is really good at it).

He really does not like doing things that require practice/effort... Eventually he will want to ride badly enough that he will learn. Until then - it's my head and a brick wall...

did your kid start off head first, on his back, down the slide? or did he get turned around inside the tube?
if the first one, why?
if the second, how?

I have a great picture of my son at about 2 years old jumping from a chair to the couch. He's airborne and fully horizontal. I'll dig it up and post if I can find it.


Here's my kid flying out of a slide at top speed while my Mom is standing there snapping a picture.

Mrs. Duffy is fucking drunk right now. She's been talking to our girlfriend on the phone for a couple of hours


She's drunk and you share a girlfriend.

The second.

The slide was a tube that was about 40 feet long. I was at the top. I sent him down the slide on his butt, feet first.

You've seen how he came out. How he got from sitting on his butt to head first on his back is anyone's guess.

How does Danny Hart sit down with balls that big?
