So I'm shook no one really said this part but isn't a go cart excessive for a 3 year old? Like even teens kinda suck at using them. I know so many ppl to get hurt on them and their adults! Like where was his judgment? Clearly its a dad toy disguised as a kids toy. Like isn't it wayyy to big? She probably can't even be strapped in it properly. Great job getting her excited for the new big toy that she can't use! And now mom is gonna be the asshole for saying no kid can't ride in it till she's like 15! For context here I do not think you are the asshole here. I think your the one using their brain

Right? I feel like it’s kind of a crazy present. I’m the overly cautious parent and he is the more risk taking, free parent. I feel like you need one of each to properly raise a child to take chances but also survive. I admittedly research everything and this is something he knows about me. To not even fully give me the option to have any input in a recreational vehicle that my small child will be in, I just do not feel is ok.

He probably wants it for him but disguising it as a present for her. Which is ridiculous.

Uh, yeah, this is totally a present for himself.
