    As a parent I can imagine the feelings you must be having now. Glad to hear the boys are all basically OK.

    My thoughts to them and you

    Cheers

    I have sometimes wondered how there are so many grown men around, seeing that they have to be boys first....

    Glad they had all the luck, and the van took all the impact.

    Boys will be boys.
    Hopefully they will learn from the experience.
    Always a worry to parents, our neighbour's son was in a car crash in which one of the four youths in the vehicle was killed.
    I am very pleased that nobody got badly hurt in your son's accident.

    As Panache said......I can imagine it as a parent. One of worst fears is always for my children who are grown and on their own; I can't protect them much anymore. Anyway, Aye, glad they are fine!!! Thank God!

    Glad everyone is OK, other than being banged up a bit and I am sure very startled. I bet all three will respect that curve and not speed unnecessarily in the future. I know after my accident I slowed my driving and was a better driver.

    Glad everyone survived, having had kids in accidents(only the 2 boys), it sure scares the parents. Tell the boy with the cut that scars are just tattoo's with better stories!

    Thank You

    My wife and I thank you all so much for your kind words.

    A few pics, it was a 1998 GMC Safari, a tough van - that and seatbelts did the job and kept them safe. The boy who went to the hospital was released with a few stitches.

    A recent picture of Zac (ScottishRebel).



    And a few picture of the van.









    Thank you all so much.
