Parent and child #7

Hi what is your name and whose parent are you?

Kirsty, I’m Theo’s mum

How long has your child been skating?

Theo has been practicing in the house for months but for a term with Tic Tac

What do you think about them skateboarding? Are you not worried they might hurt themselves?

I’m so pleased that Theo has finally found his passion. I did think he might have hurt himself worse than the few bumps he’s had but he’s not fazed and gets straight back up.

What got your child into skateboarding?

He’s had a board at home for months and after deciding my furniture and steps had had enough battering I fb searched and found Tic Tac starting up.

Do you think it’s a positive pastime? Even with all the stigma surrounding skateboarding?

Oh for sure! Theo didn’t know anyone at all at the start. He’s overcome his shyness and now he’s happy to mix with new friends. He comes away after each lesson exhilarated.
