How can you say that you "never put then in harms way" or that you "never
fly in dangerous conditions". You have no idea of whether you are doing these things or not. I am not trying to say that you are crazy or ignorant, I just would like to know how you can rationalize those statements with reality. I've taken my kids hiking in the Grand Canyon (no hand rails!), swimming in the ocean (sharks!), spelunking in underground caverns (cave-ins), bike riding on trails (broken neck!), and motorcycling across the country (crazy drivers trying to kill us!). During each one of these activities, I've been acutely aware of the high risks involved. I've also taken them flying since before they could walk, and have never felt that I was needlessly endangering them. Were my kids safer in the ocean? Everything comes down to risk assessment. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination"
