Title: For those of y'all with kids.....
Post by: cudruln on November 09, 2012, 11:00:58 PM: At what age did you start taking them trail riding. My boy will be three at the end of December and he already loves the Jeep, just trying to figure out a good age to have him tag along with dad. Obviously my main concern is the safety of him, so I would not be pushing the limits by any means. I am just ready for him to start enjoying the whole aspect of the Jeep life.

I know its a lot of work taking them with you sometimes with all the other things you have to take with you. ie dippers,wipes,bottles,so on. Just get a tote and strap it in too! You won't regret it.

He is a bad influence!! He pressured me to go ass deep in a huge mud pit </LMAO/>

If they get knocked around and they are not securely fastened, the fun will be over... If they feel safe and secure, they will laugh about it.
