Huh? What do you mean by that? lol Sorry, I guess I just didn't understand your wording.

Kill them slow or fast...I'd rather go with fast food than with a kick to my kid's head! At least I'd be able to spend time with them AND I could get them on a healthy diet again. Yes, second hand smoke is horrible. I think smoking in general is bad, but especially when with a child presence. That's just a no-brainer. And fast food every once in a while is ok, just not all the time.

Wait....County, are you saying that leaving a child behind a horse ISN'T stupid?

There are LOTS of stupid things you can do with a child to put them in danger. We are completely aware of that. BUT, we are NOT saying anything about second hand smoke or fast food...those are other topics. We KNOW those things are bad. Just because we say one thing is dangerous doesn't mean we don't think, or are going to list out, other situations that are dangerous as well. We could ad TONS of other topics to them too. Like driving without a seatbelt or leaving a gun around the house...

but we're not talking about that right now. We're just saying that leaving a kid directly behind a horse is ONE OF THE stupid things you can do as a parent.

Some people should not have children.

ok guys let me clear this up a little bit, I didnt explain the whole story.

Ok, So my neighbor is EXTREMELY RUDE. She is just flat out rude. I used to board at there barn, Then they took MY pony out while I was on vacation. Put KIDS on him (wich he is fine with kids, but if they would have fallen off, we would be in big trouble) They put kids on him that were in bathingsuits and flip flops, and they had no helmet's on. She put my family in Danger, and when I got back from vacation he was DEAD LAME. This pony has NEVER been lame a day in his life (exept for that, and when he got an absess) I had to go out there 3 times a day, for 2months straight in the winter time and spray his legs with hot water.

Then her horses look horrible, There friends took one of my (other) neighbores horse, Who I loved so much. She was like my own horse.
It just really hurt, They knew I loved that horse so much. She was basically my horse when I was little, and I couldn't afford a horse.

I would have talked to the parent,but It would have NOT been pretty.


Oh and to top it ALL off, The mom last year got kicked in the head.
And she was screwed up for weeks, and couldnt remember anything.

You think that after the mom's accident she would be ALOT Saffer!

And her mom has had horses for a long long time, But I bet I know more about horses then she does.
It just really ticks me off when people put there kids in danger.

Unless the OP is flat out lying, which I would doubt, I don't see how anything the mother could say would change it from being a stupid thing to do.

This has NOTHING to do about me NOT liking her.

I saw what I saw, And What I saw was a KID that was inches away from a horses hoof.
And It was her job as a PARENT, To make sure that kid was SAFE.

Exactly, I don't think this is a matter of the OP bashing this person, it is them talking about something that is a rather serious issue, regardless of whether you like someone or not. It's just kind of obvious that leaving your kid like that is stupid. These are horses and we should respect them as such. If I was a mother, I'd want the best quality life I could possibly get them. Not risk them getting killed.

The other things the OP mentioned about this woman is OUTRAGEOUS. Man, she shouldn't be around horses at ALL. That would just drive me up the walls.

Yeah, She even got kicked in the head last year, and When she came home for a couple months she couldnt remember hardly anything.
I find it stupid that she is willing to take that risk again. Just shocked me.

Some of you sure can add words to something. Go back and read what I said do it slow if you have to, don't add anything just use the words written. Shouldn't be hard for anyone to figure out what I said its very basic, plain English.
