Ya i dont know what it is when your young, but when ya crash the go cart, the snowmobile, the quad, etc lol Your more worried about what your dads going to think and if your going to get yelled at, and not if your ok or not. I remeber wiping out hard once, 6th gear pinnned coming over a slight hill, pants ripped right off lol, and the first thing i said to my buddy as i lay there, shee on its side, "is the quad alright lol" I always thought as a young kid people heal, quads cost money lol. Hope your son is alright, and i hope he gets right back on that quad and rips it up!!!!!!! Tough kid that is for sure!!! You should be proud as a father!
