Since their introduction to the public several decades ago, ATVs have become increasingly popular. They are very appealing to riders because of the amount of excitement one feels as they are riding. People are now discovering that the whole family can enjoy the excitement of the ATV. On the negative side, though, people are often injured while ATVing, and because of this, it is vitally important that adults do everything they can to ensure the safety of both themselves and their children.
To drive an ATVsafely, one needs to be strong, skilled, and, most important, mature. This is why children who are younger than 16 years of age should never operate an ATV. Adults must not forget that it also takes strength and stamina to be a passenger. A rider who is sitting behind the driver must be able to hold on tight for a long period. Often, they must hold on while the ATV goes over very bumpy ground at a high speed. The rule of thumb is that any child who is younger than six years old should never be allowed to ride as a passenger on an ATV.
It is probably not surprising to discover that head injuries are one of the causes of both death and serious injury on ATVs. These serious injuries usually occur when ATVers crash, fall, or overturn while moving. It should be remembered that children can also be injured if they are towed by an ATV during winter months while they are on a sled, tube, tire, or other device that is being pulled by an ATV. In Canada, statistics show that four children younger than 16 years of age die in recreational vehicle related accidents each year.
So, the question becomes: how can ATVs be used safely so that they are enjoyed by each and every member of the family who is old enough to do so? If your family happens to own an ATV, be sure that no one under the age of 16 is ever allowed to drive it. Again, it is tremendously important that you never allow any children younger than six years of age to ride as passengers. If you are a parent who owns and operates an ATV, consider following these rules to be an excellent opportunity to model the type of safe behavior you want your children to display.
Before you head out on your ATV adventure, be sure to be careful when fueling the ATV. Burns are possible, and you want to avoid them. Be sure to use the proper lifting methods when loading ATVs on and off trailers. This will help you prevent strains and crush injuries. Make sure that you check the weather forecast before you go out. It is probably not a good idea to venture out if a major storm is brewing. Also, make sure that you check the condition of the trails. Depending on how mountainous the area in which you will be ATVing is, you may want to assess whether there is danger of an accident. In the winter, always be sure to avoid ATVing on ice if you are not 100% certain that the ice is very thick.
You should also be able to identify the signs of hypothermia if you are ATVing in the wintertime, and know what to do if it does occur. Make sure that you always travel with the right equipment. You will want to have well-insulated protective clothing, such as goggles, waterproof suits and gloves, and rubber-bottomed boots. Of course, you need to make sure that everyone who will be riding is wearing a helmet approved for ATVing. Another thing you can do to ensure the safety of you and your family is to attach brightly colored antenna flags to your ATV. You will definitely want to do this if you are driving in a particularly hilly area.
Of course, the most important thing you can do to ensure your family’s safety is to drive carefully. Use wisdom and caution. If you have followed the preceding guidelines, you will find that ATVing is a very exciting sport that can be enjoyed by members of your entire family.

A person, who fails to abide by a parenting order, may be in Contravention (violation) of parenting orders.
Every time parenting orders are made by either the Family Court or Federal Magistrates, there’s an requirement that all parties must follow the orders. For example, a parent has a positive obligation to inspire a child to spend time with the other parent (if this is specified in the order).
In Parenting Orders, there are typically issues with failing to attend, failure to comply and, for example, arriving late or early for changeovers.
In these cases the party alleging non-compliance can file an application for “contravention” of the Orders.
Generally speaking contraventions are technically difficult legal arguments, and recent amendments to the legislation places an obligation on the party bringing the contravention to set out or indicate what actions can be taken to assist to remedy the situation and prevent further complications.
Before filing an Application for Contravention of Orders, you should think of the end result that you might want to attain and the available alternatives you have:
attending dispute resolution
getting legal advice
applying to a court.
Attend family dispute resolution
Community-based family dispute resolution can help you and the other party work through your disagreement. Resolving issues this way is less formal than going to court and should cost less in money, time and emotion. Also, since both parties are involved in shaping an alternative, it enhances the chances that an agreement will be long-lasting.
You and the other person can attend family dispute resolution before filing a court application. If an agreement is reached, you and the other person can make a parenting plan or apply to court for consent orders.
Should there be a history of family violence, it may not be correct to attend family dispute resolution.
Note: A parenting plan is not a legally enforceable agreement. It is different from a parenting order, which is made by a court and is legally enforceable. You should get legal advice about this.
Get legal advice
You should get legal advice before deciding what to do. A lawyer can help you understand your legal rights and responsibilities, and explain how the law applies to your case. A lawyer can also explain and help you reach an agreement without going to court.
Apply to a court
If you cannot reach an agreement, you may consider applying to a court for orders. Going to court is often a stressful time for many people. It can also be expensive and time consuming. However, sometimes it may be the only way to deal with a dispute.
A court can impose an order to compel you to abide by the order. It also can vary an order to ensure all people bound by it comply with the order in the future.
What exactly is reasonable excuse?
If a court decides a person has contravened a parenting order, it will consider whether the person had a reasonable excuse for contravening an order. Some examples of reasonable excuses that may satisfy the court include:
1.the person didn’t grasp the obligations imposed by the order, or
2.the person reasonably believed that the actions constituting the contravention were important to protect the health and safety of a person, including the person who contravened the order or the child, and
3.that the time of the contravention was not longer than was necessary to protect the health and safety of the person who contravened the order or the child.
Standard of proof – ‘beyond reasonable doubt’
The decision of a judge or federal magistrate in family litigation must be evidence based. The more serious the allegation or more improbable the supposed event, the stronger the evidence has to be before a court concludes that the alleged event occurred.
Except for more serious contraventions or contempt, a party must prove the allegations or facts relied on to the court’s satisfaction on what is called balance of probabilities. The alleged fact must be more than merely possible; it must be more likely to exist than not. Thus, where the allegation is that one party has not complied with a court order, the alleging party (the applicant in a contravention case) must establish that it is more likely than not that the alleged breach occurred.
In the most serious contraventions, including contempt, a court will not find the case proved unless it is satisfied that all the essential facts have been established beyond reasonable doubt. This is the same standard required in criminal matters. In general terms it, means that the truth of the allegation must be the only reasonable explanation for what has occurred.
Contraventions are split into four categories
Contraventions are split into four categories, and depending on the contravention, the Court can specify the remedy or action that can be undertaken.
Contravention alleged but not established (Subdivision C): the Court may order the person who has bought proceedings, to pay some, or all, of the other persons costs.
Contravention established but reasonable excuse for contravention (Subdivision D): if the Court has found that a contravention of an order was established, but there was a reasonable excuse for the contravention, then an order can be made to compensate the person for the time that they did not spend with the child, or oblige the party who is in contravention, to pay some or all of the costs of the other party.
Less serious contravention established without reasonable excuse (Subdivision E): in circumstances where the Court has considered a contravention to be less serious, it may issue an order that can include some, or all of the following directions:
1.the party who committed the contravention is to attend a post-separation parenting program;
2.make a further parenting order that compensates the person for the time that they did not spend with the child;
3.allow the parties to make an application to vary orders;
4.require the person to enter into a bond;
5.make an order for compensation for any costs incurred as a result of the contravention (eg. travel expenses);
6.require the person to pay some or all of the other partys costs.
More serious contravention established without reasonable excuse (Subdivision F): if a party displays a serious disregard for their obligations under the order through their behaviour and a serious contravention has been established, the Court must then make an order to the contravening party to pay all of the other partys costs.
Furthermore, the Court may:
1.subject the person to a community service order;
2.require the contravening party to enter into a bond;
3.make a parenting order that compensates the person for the time that they did not spend with the child;
4.order the person to pay a fine;
5.sentence the person for up to 12 months imprisonment;
6.make an order for compensation for any costs incurred as a result of the contravention;
7.order the person to pay some or all of the other partys costs.

Camping has always been a favorite of families for fun and get together. Times have changed and teenagers go not like camping anymore, there are no computers and internet signals in the woods and sometimes they even lose their cell communication. Modern camp grounds are not like this, of course you need to roughen it up a bit to enjoy camping, but this does not mean you have to be totally isolated from the world.
Summer camping with all the family is a great opportunity to bond and have fun. Even teenagers will go for it if you chose the camp carefully and make sure that they have wireless computer access and that they are within cell phone communication too. This does not mean that the kids will spend the day hooked up to the computers or phones all day. It means that they can feel safe and comfortable because they can still communicate even though they wont be doing it all the time.
It is important that you and your kinds define and set the communication with the outside times so you do not have any confusion later. The idea of the trip is to share with each other outdoor activities and not to go somewhere else to use the phone and computer. Schedules for this must be set and respected, if they are not the trip will end up in failure. Family activities should be agreed upon by all those involved. Canoe rides and swimming or hiking, horseback riding, any activity that involves the whole family must be agreed upon by everybody.
The children will not have fun if they are forced to do something they dont want. Get everybody involved in the planning and preparing of meals, everyone should also have chores to do, collect wood or wash the dishes. Get the family together for at least one hour at night around the campfire and talk to your children, listen to them talk about their friends or what they do or want to do. It may seem stupid to you or worthless to you as an adult, but their worries and problems are very real for them and they need solutions for these problems.
Forget about work and school and all the problems you have at home during thee few days. Concentrate on sharing as much time as possible with your wife and children. Make it a point to have individual activities with each one alone too. This will help you get closer and learn more about each other in a one to one conversation away from the normal environment of home pressure.
Talking and having family fun with teenagers is not easy. You must have patience and you must have a canny instinct to know and feel when it is time to approach them and when not to. Taking them out of their environment for a couple of days is good because they will be relieved of their everyday pressures and stress much in the same way you will also be relieved of these. It will be easier for both of you to communicate and talk about irrelevant stuff. Be patient and follow your instincts, this can be a great bonding experience that will stay with them forever.
A family camping trip is always a way to bring the family closer and to enjoy nature together. Take advantage of the time together and get to know your children better.
