What’s the Best 50cc Dirt Bike for Kids?
https://dirtbikeplanet.com/best-50cc-dirt-bike/
EXCERPT: "I generally recommend that kids between three to seven years old ride a 50cc dirt bike. Kids who are 8-10 years old can also ride their old 50cc bike, but at 8 years-old, they would more properly fit a larger bike."
Journalism's sample of public reaction to a 5-year old riding and injuring himself on a dirt bike: "OMG. He has a broken arm and leg."
Journalism's sample of public reaction to a 5-year old shooting himself in the foot: "OMG. What was a five-year old doing with a gun?!"
EDIT addendum: On the bright side, at least they're not helicopter parents.

Mr Bright side & the Helicopter ambulance for parents...
ive seen some videos which show the parents as being more cave-man like putting the child in direct line of danger to try and baptise the male child.
they do not do it with females.
it is a gender programming thing handed on from parent to parent as gender stereo typing homophobic self idiation.
the parents project their own fears through the child forcing the child into a position of expereincing the life issues that the parent has.
it is probably a variant of the munchausenby proxy in a transferance state while looking at the self by the parent.
you will see the behaviour fairly clearly by the parents.
they will set the child up among other children where the child can injure other children, siblings but not adults, and then the parent projects their own reasoning on to the group of children to justify the damage as a form of validation.
ive lost count of how many times ive seen this.
it does not appear to be soci-ecconomically dependant, however it is easier to see in lower class working class because of scietys normalisation of gender in equality and gender stereo types for a process of profit making.
