Yesterday my friend and I went to this place where they teach you how to ride a horse and everything, if your really good they will make you join a compaction.
I was really exited, i told my dad and everything but he said he will think about it, and he also said that it’s really dangerous because i might fall and get ”Polio” or whatever he calls it.
how do i make him say yes ?
sorry for my bad English
He needs more information & to be sure your Equestrian Rider Amazon.com’;return true;” onmouseout=”self.status=””>safety is utmost in your instructor’s mind. He needs to observe what goes on there and to talk to the instructor or whoever is in charge, asking specifically about what they do to be sure you are safe. Like what gear you wear, what kind of horse is a novice put on, how is riding taught, etc., etc. Horse riding is dangerous but so is a bicycle.
I suggest you make some kind of agreement with him that you will not take a big step in your riding or enter a competition without his and your instructor’s approval. If he feels involved, knowledgeable, and in control of your safety, he is more likely to let you participate. Young people do tend to jump into things without regard to their safety. You think nothing is going to happen to me. Your dad & instructor will know better and look out for your safety

My mom is just like your dad. To convince your dad, bring him some more informant on the place and its horses, its style of riding and its disciplines. Take him with one day you go, let him see you ride. Introduce him to the trainers and owners. Get good grades, because no parent wants to award a child for failing.
