Ditto.

You deserve an award for going through all that. My 4 and 5 yo boys would think you are the coolest person ever!

Nice!

Sheesh, I never knew any kids that bad. I mean, Ive known adults that bad,(seriously) but not kids. I leave my unfinished classics all over the house within kids reach,, never had to worry about it,, but all they could do is throw em,, not runners.

I notice parents telling their visiting kids" now dont touch those, theyre expensive". So I respond, oh its ok, they can roll them around, they are pretty tough. Then the kids zoom them around, and slowly play crash, and make sound effects... never had to worry. Really though,, my cars mostly turn into a ride for my little ponies, or littlest pet shops,, the regal yz-10 as a rolling pony pet taxi. Works for me.

The few runners we keep are all way to fast and dangerous,, so its never even a topic of discussion,, they are out of site out of mind.

Around here, 9 out of 10 times kids behave that way the parents seem to give all of their attention to their smartphone instead of educating their kids so they learn to focus and be able to figure out things on their own. I've taken the habit of slowing to a crawl the moment I spot such kids when biking around, because they often run onto the street right in front of your wheels (the parents often also step in front of your wheels while intently watching their smartphone ). When you make a remark about it you are told to mind your own business or worse (they really should change local laws so the idiots are to blame instead of the poor drivers who couldn't possibly avoid them...).
Just a pain in the arse.

Someone needs to turn this into a TV series...or at least a standup comedy act...
