What's the real story on stranger danger?

wow if that is really your daughters own words she is extremely well spoken and lucid. Good article.

Thank you. It is her words, although I removed a few phrases like "My classmates are deadly". She writes a lot, mostly sci fi.

What exactly do you mean by "Power Pedal start and stop?"

Power Pedal Start is something they taught in Bike Pro, where you straddle the bike, put the pedal in the up position, and as you step on the pedal, the bike moves forward and you sit on the seat, all in one smooth move.

Similarly when you stop, you put the pedal in the down position, as you come to a stop you stand up off the seat and put your other foot down to the ground, again all in one smooth move.

It's harder to describe than it is to show... http://youtu.be/68y3o5MGc78
