There Are Specific Things About investing In Used Motorcycles That You Should discover Before Making A Deal

There have been thrice in life when folks have told me that I am too controlling. This is not something that is nice to hear. Every time I have heard this I have become fairly defensive and angry, but upon personal reflection I actually realize that the observations were right. This is not the greatest feeling, yet I was glad that I have people that care enough about me to point out my mistakes to me. The only way we’re able to grow and change is if we realize what we’re doing wrong.

My latest episode of being too controlling involved my eighteen year old son. He was looking for motorcycles for sale. I wanted him to take a look at used cars, but no. He’s not into used cars, because motorbikes are a lot more attractive compared with used cars. He had been saving his money from a part time job for two years. He had talked about owning a bike since he was ten years old. I have always been concerned about this because I know that there are many people that get seriously hurt and killed in accidents each year.

A couple of weeks prior to his birthday he was looking at newspaper ads for motorcycles for sale. I went into my full litany about why this was not a great idea. We ended up having a disagreement and both of us said things that we regretted. I informed him that he won’t own a motorcycle while still living at home so he actually threatened to move out and things just escalated. I was feeling awful and was losing sleep. I did not want to back down from my decision.

One of my co-workers who is also a very good friend informed me that I was trying to protect and control my son and in the process was actually losing him. She pointed out that he was really very responsible. He had held the same job for two years and maintained excellent grades in school. He was responsible in driving the family car and he was not a risk taker. She pointed out that when he was eighteen he would be an adult and I needed to give up trying to control his life.

She was right. It was really difficult to hear and admit, but what she was actually saying was totally true. I called my spouse and asked him if he knew which of the motorcycles for sale our son was interested in. I suggested we help him purchase it as a gesture that I will support his decision to have a bike and trusted that he would be safe with it. We informed our son that night that we’d help him purchase the motorcycle as his birthday present. I apologized to him. This is one thing that I have found has helped in my relationship with our children, the ability to admit being mistaken and apologizing when I am.
