I have a total grip and made the bike comments because I found your comments about how other mothers did things judgmental and was just trying to show a different point. Guess you can't handle a difference of opinion. Sad to say such unkind words as a fellow Mom. This is the first unkind words I have ever read on this website.

We kept bending up the training wheels and soon the boys were riding their bikes without the training wheels ever touching the ground. Once we took off the training wheels it was no big deal. This way worked for us.

Maybe people should refrain from the comments mocking them. Some mothers would love nothing more than for their children to experience "real life" on a "real bike" but their child may not have that luxury.

I too would hate for my kids to actually experience real life on a real bike. Yes, by all means, keep these pretend bikes in a controlled area. Maybe even pad your walls. Quite right, Katy.
