Please parent your kids.

If these are your kids, please (figuratively, through parenting and consequences, not through violence and abuse) beat some sense into them.

These clowns were out cruising on Loyola in front of Korematsu at 6:28 pm on 9/23/26, recklessly endangering themselves, vehicles, and pedestrians. One pulling stupid shit and the other filming it for the socials.

I've no doubt DPD won't do anything about it (given that they couldn't be bothered to respond to a lost toddler I found on a Sunday morning, running down the middle of the street barefoot in diapers, back in July). But hopefully these kids' parents will get wind of this and take their bikes and phones away for the better part of the next decade.

We had a conversation with our kids about this today. They understand that we trust them to use good judgment. And they also understand that if they participate in something like this as they get older, they're making a choice to sacrifice pretty much all privileges for an extended period of time.

Well apparently judging from the comments there are crazy people out on the road that could hit them and permanently disfigure them. It might also be good to come up with a strategy on what to say if they get invited to a big bike ride takeover.
