My dad won't let me get a motor scooter b/c I don't wear a helmet...?

ok, my next door neighbor has this electric scooter and im saving up for one. he won't let me get it because i don't wear a helmet on my next door neighbors'
he doesn't understand that it makes you look like a dork, and that scooter pretty much balances itself. im so f**ked at him

what should i do? i want it but ... UGH!

HELP!!!



AH!

jus twear the helmet. You will be safer, and you ca nget a cool ride.

I have to wear mine when i go on bike rides, but what i do is if i am actually going somewhere, i take it off, untill they are out of sight, then wen i am coming close to home, i ut it back on.

Wear the goddamn helmet. You might be a good driver, and the scooter might balance itself, but you can't tell about other cars.
If you think that it makes you look like a dork, don't worry about it. If I was a gal, I wouldn't be thinking about how you are wearing a helmet, I would be thinking that I would just like to ride on your scooter with you!!

Wear a helmet. It will protect what little brains you already have left.

haha i know how you feel.

" its not safe"
yeahh okk.thats why they sell it.

I'm glad your dad is not letting you get a scooter if you won't wear a helmet! He obviously loves you and wants to see you grow up...

It is truely dangerous to ride without a helmet! It is there to make sure you survive and don't end up...well - lets not go there!

my son was like you only he didn't want to wear one on his bike because he looked like a dork-but the day he wrecked it he thanked me for making him look like a dork because he knew that his head would've been split in two instead of the helmet-still had to get stitches though

He wants you to wear the helmet to protect you from others that would be on the road but be original and you can have a helmet everyone will envoy. You can look at pictures from the Sturgis run, for example, and see any helmets there you like, perhaps go on eBay and see what is there,or paint it red, white, and blue and be patriotic. How about a picture of your favorite band name painted on it. you could paint it white and paste a small chicken on top of an egg. Be original and people will admire your creativity and admire you rather than think you a dork.

Culling the herd.

"it makes you look like a dork" . . what a dumbass YOU are for not wearing a helmet. At least if you die from a head injury, there is a waiting list for your organs.
