  • I don't allow underage kids at all

    I know others won't like this but due to recent challenges to the liability laws in Florida I have decided to refuse all minor children. A court here nullified a liability release because the father signed it and the mother (parents divorced) sued after the child was hurt. She won the case and a monetary award - when I read that story and the follow up article I decided the risk wasn't worth it.

    That said, I do not depend on my barn for my main income, so it is easier for me to say no. I am also not present at my barn during all business hours so I am not there to babysit the boarders. I am sticking with adults and currently they are all over 40 years old.
