So it was family day today and we decided to take our 7 year old son roller skating for the first time. My husband and I kept saying we just don't want to fall, we just don't want to get hurt. Please let us just teach our son to skate and go home with no aches and pains. Of course that wasn't the case. 15 minutes into skating, my son is in the middle of us and we are gliding slowly and doing fine until 4 teenagers collided and who gets hit! Yes ME, flat on my butt and the pain went straight to my head! OUCH let me just tell you. I am not young anymore so I was trying so hard not to fall the entire day! Now it hurts to walk. We still skated the rest of the day and even though I was in a little pain. My son wasn't happy in the beginning and yes crying did take place- (not easy for parents to teach children ... I guess that's why there are private lesson/group lessons LOL ) But then an hour later, he was gliding 4-6 inches and so proud of himself. Well, at least he said he wanted to try it again. Mission accomplished :) except for my butt :(
Thanks again for reading.
