Training wheels forever?
Children wobble on training wheels past readiness. Parents push running behind.
1. The problem
Kids depend on training wheels long past readiness. Parents run bent double behind wobbling bikes. Fear blocks pedaling attempts. Bikes size wrong yearly. The hardest part is timing pedal introduction. A child might be ready while parents hover. That uncertainty makes it hard to launch independent riders.
“Training wheels persist way past ready. I need readiness tests with gradual steps.”
2. What exists
Balance bikes, YouTube transitions and parent running coach kids, while training wheels persist. Bikes cost more upfront. A video might demonstrate briefly. There is little help with readiness checklists plus step transitions for families.
3. The solution
The solution could be a launch-ready transition plan. It could test gliding readiness simply. It could stage pedal introduction gradually. Celebration rituals could mark first solos. The goal would be riders, not runners-behind.
