growalot Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 This is the Mom in me...my brother was about that size and Dad thought being out there watching made it safe....until Johny pulled back toward himself and his foot slipped on the damp cut grass...they found his big toe and put it back on...but not his second toe...just food for thought......

Deerthug Posted August 19, 2013 Author Share Posted August 19, 2013 (edited) Thanks for your concern Growie. But this mower stops the engine as soon as you let go of the red bar attached to the handle. He knows to let go if he's not comfortable.

apoallo Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 I remember when I was a little kid My dad let me hold the weed wacker and do some wacking as long as he was nearby. ... Well as soon as I took control of that weed wacker I lost control. I pulled the throttle and the torque from it swung the business end back toward my dad and I weed wacked a good portion of hair and skin off the inside of his calf. After that I wasn't allowed to use the lawn equipment for some years later 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woodjr55 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 When I was 12 I volunteered to cut my spare lot because he had a riding lawn mower. Well after the first time cutting the lawn the mower broke. That was a long year of mowing the lawn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deerthug Posted August 20, 2013 Author Share Posted August 20, 2013 He asked to do chores/projects to save up for a new laptop. So far he helped me move my office, painted my daughter's room, he cuts the lawn, and will be painting the fence soon. My wife and I did not blink because we knew it would get him off the Xbox. He's earned $200 so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
