You take what I said too literally. Obviously written as a slight exaggeration. I'm sure there are some well behaved teenage kids, but the majority of them do not follow proper mountain etiquette. It's kind of hard to think all kids are well behaved when 90% of the accidents I've seen have been caused by a child of that age. It was a trail report where I wrote what I observed on my trip, I don't understand why it offended you.

It offended me because I have 2 very well behaved teenage children. I worked very hard to make sure of that. Prejudice is prejudice, whether based on race, gender or age.

I believe you are on the exception sorry to say it but after raising 2 boys who are now 25 and 22 i have seen the sorry side of parenting.
I have seen some really great kids on mountain but i see more that are not.

Saying ALL kids are well behaved would be just as bad as saying ALL are not. Kids are all individuals and should be treated as such.

Don't pull the prejudice card. Saying most kids misbehave in their teen years and judging someone by their race are two completely different things. I bet if spoke to the parent of the kid who threw the bottle at racers, they would say their kid is well behaved. I can only base my beliefs on what I see. What I see is the majority of kids acting like assholes on the mountain. If your kids behave as well as you say, then they are most definitely in the minority.

The problem with these boards is no one ever wants to admit they said something wrong. First you said ALL teenagers are bad. Now you say MOST. I only objected to the ALL word. Thank you for not using it anymore.

The Belleayre staff is pretty neutral. Some good, some not. They could use some customer training. I noticed Hunter made an effort my one day there this season. The lifties were very friendly, especially on the 6 pack. It does make a difference as this helps to set the tone of the customers.

Most kids are fine. The few that are not you really notice! Belleayre seems to have less of these than at other places in the Cats IME.
