If I have kids I will be quite happy to do the same for them if they like windsurfing.
Its the IF that makes me laugh Moby. When your in the position of actually being responsible for your kids safety you may adjust the stance a little.
I too had a fabulous upbringing and freedom of sailing in Port Stephens every Summer arvo after school. One day I was pretty lucky after a gear breakage and was drifting seawards through the heads too far out for paddling. As dusk brough a lone fishing boat into the bay, he kindly picked me and gear up and dropped me back at Jimmys Beach with a very bruised ego.
Maybe a liitle too much freedom back then. Of course we are always prone to overreacting to counter the previous generations tendencies.
