Is it child labor when they have fun? My Olivia used her 616 to haul some dirt, they helped me fill a hole, and of course I had to let her drive around her friend for 20 minutes. I love the little tractors, the kids love them and they are still work horses....

Looks like a great day, and I doubt Olivia will turn you in for "making her work". It looks like the perfect setup for both you and her. |

I have 3 Massey MF'8 and a Montgomery Wards Garden Mark Hydrostatic 8hp all of them are way to small for me, when I'm on them, it looks like a bear riding a tricycle at the circus |

I think people were smaller, or they made equipment smaller, I really hope no one sees a video of me driving a tractor not much bigger than a Tonka Toy |

The list of Labor & Industry laws you have broken are long and carry a very hefty fines. To name a few, allowing anyone under the age of 18 to operate a motor vehicle. Allowing passengers on said motor vehicle,not using proper saftey gear. LOL screw it they had a good time. |

With our 1925 Dodge we don't need seatbelts because they weren't offered at the time. I assumed that since she was opporating a piece of equipment before proper safety equipment was mandated it is grandfathered? Yeah..... |
