Helmets

My boys are both really into biking right now, especially Jameson. He knows he is not allowed to go biking unless he wears his helmet. He does it without complaint and often reminds Stellan to put his helmet on. I love having a child who is concerned with safety! Problem is, he concerns himself with the safety of others too. Wherever we go, he always looks at people riding their bikes. Without fail he will comment on their use or lack of helmets. When they aren't wearing helmets he comments, "They aren't wearing helmets, that's a safety violation". It's cute, the first time or two. It's excessive and potentially embarrassing every time after that. He had a great time pointing it out as we walked the streets of New York. Now I'll have to teach him discretion.
