I first noticed this phenonemon a coupld of years ago when the irritating noise of a mechanical bumble bee buzzing around the field outside Brig's front window caused me to look out and wonder. There was (I'd say) a five-year-old boy on a miniature motorcycle, his father watching proudly as the son and heir clocked about 20 miles per hour. Okay, he was wearing a crash helmet, but it still made the hair on the back of my neck stand up. What if the little bugger crashed?

Yesterday or the day before, I was getting into the car outside my father's place when another tyke shot by me, this time on an electric scooter. It was one of those type that workers or messengers in big warehouses use: the stand-on type. This time the "man" in charge was about six, dressed in an ordinary grey school trousers and uniform sweater. He was doing about 15 mph and was LOOKING BEHIND HIM the whole way!!!! Another kid on a regular pushbike was trying to keep up, and yer man was watching him, not where he was going. And the fecker hadn't a stich of safety gear on him.

Now... Is it just me... Or do you think that parents have gone mad altogether?
