Kids and header pipes don't mix
#1
Just a word of warning to anyone out there with young kids. My 2 year old son got a severe burn on the inside of his hand last weekend when he grabbed a hold of the header pipe trying to climb up on my DS. I turned around for a couple of seconds and that was all it took.
Absolutely the worst feeling in the world.................[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]
He's a tough little guy and is doing pretty good now. It is definatley nothing I want to have to go through again, and would not wish upon any body else.

Bryce,
I very sorry to here of your sons ordeal. As you mentions "It only takes a moment" for the little ones to get into something dangerous. You would think I'd know better as an adult but I've done the same thing your son did although I was under the bike... [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img]
The bad thing is they don't always learn the first time so needless to say WATCH HIM !.....[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

Bummer, hope he is doing better. My 2 year old, was putting around with his Grandpa and put his ankle right on the pipe. It took me almost a month to get him riding again. I kept pointing to the bikes going owie owie owie. It is all good now, but it don't take but a second. Unfortunatly, I am sure we have all done it. I have one on my leg from 20+ years ago.
