Re: Opinions!!!!!!!
Have you ever watched Gone With The Wind? Horseback riding accidents happen. The point is, a 13-year-old girl could be killed while riding a horse. Now, we trust that won't happen and we don't even worry that it might. On the other hand, she could be abducted and raped while riding a bike to her horseback riding lesson. We have no way of knowing what will happen when they ride off into the wild blue yonder.
Statistically, there are more 13 year old girls killed in car wrecks that close to home than there are 13 year old girls pulled off their bikes and abducted by strangers. Yet we think it's safer to drive them. Why? At the end of the day, no matter how hard you try to protect them, kids sometimes get hurt. The only peace we can have is trusting that God will keep them and protect them, whether they are on a bike, in a car or riding a horse.
