Thirty years ago I took my son, Andy and two of his friends for a trip to Snowdon. We decided on a trip up Crib Goch as forecast was good. They were ten years old and enjoyed it as much as Harry seems to. Passed many adults who were gripped or just very unconfident .The boys were sensible and respectful of the hill hence a great trip. Then back to Willy's barn for hit chocolate and cake. Great birthday day out.
I think he was brilliant. One life per person and then we die. I'm coming up for 68 years old and I fired all my canons at once. I've had a wonderful life. ❤
Not a good idea. The thing with kids is they stumble about and lose their footing now and then, and do careless things. They're only kids after all. I don't think it's wise to encourage kids to go up there, even if one's own kids climb like pros.
How stupid are some parents? If the child had fallen and been injured, or worse, the parents decision to take the child to that location would have been exposed to very close scrutiny indeed.
I guess that this video might make you feel uncomfortable Robert, and I get that, but as someone who knows my son (he has been climbing since the age of 2, and has completed many other grade 1 scrambles), I'd suggest that as his parent I'm not stupid. Instead I raise my children to understand and appreciate risk. They learn to recognise it, to mitigate it, and to take it. I feel strongly that we as a nation, are raising a generation of angst-ridden children who lack the confidence or self-esteem to make it through day to day life. Without risk takers in life we will be will be without the entrepreneurs, doctors, scientists and soldiers, that our society needs. More and more, people often exist in the safe mediocrity of their comfort zone, and without edging out at all, they are simply not growing. And THAT is the greater danger.
@@will4adventure546some people would much prefer to see him say at home in front of a PS5 day and night. You should be a very proud father, that’s an incredible achievement, especially considering his age. Bravo
@@elliotrose8836 yeah, real clever comment. Call me old fashioned... but I just dislike exposing young kids to the real danger of death. At that age, they ain't mature enough to assess risk v reward. But hey, he isn't my kid. I hope nothing bad happens to him. Regards
Brilliant. God Bless him. 👍
