My coworker told me today her soon to be 8 year old can’t ride a bike and still has training wheels. Is this a common thing now?

I don’t even let him cross major highways on it either poor kid

This is also the thread for suffocating helicopter parents to provide me pro tips for teaching a pre-shool kid to ride with no training wheels.
he's good on the training wheels bike
he's good on the balance bike
should just be plug and play or nah?

Another pro tip from someone no kids: have him learn on some grass so the falls aren't as bad

I think when I was about 3 my dad took me to the, top of a long sloping gravel farm driveway and just sort of gave me a push and I coasted down it and then I never used training wheels again. My bike was tiny and blue with white wheels.

Sand road. No training wheels. Dad would get me a running start and give me a big shove. Had some pretty extensive road rash by the time it all clicked.
