>>>> this student of mine is thirteen, so somewhere between "small" and "adult", i guess. when i was thirteen i had my own horse and i don't think i ever rode in any supervisory sight at all, as i had no instructor and my parents are uninterested in horses. i had my adventures (and I think now my student has had one of her own), but neither i nor my pony came to harm.
Hmm, you described her as a child in the first e-mail. You even mentioned that you'd put a ponying line on her saddle, in case she needed to be ponied. Based on that, it sounded like she was pretty young, and certainly not used to going on the trail alone. Quite a different impression in the first e-mail than a teenager out having "adventures." >>>> i had my adventures (and I think now my student has had one of her own), but neither i nor my pony came to harm There were no seatbelts when I was growing up either, but I certainly use them now.
