OMG, I almost fainted when I read that one! Kind of jumps out at you, doesn't it? I think this guy loves his kids and probably has the best of intentions. He just doesn't seem to have common sense and good judgment.

What is the difference between that and riding on a stack of square bales?
Oh, the house is more stable and moves slower.

I've seen houses being moved that split asunder. How about the kid on top? What the hell would have happened if the kid mistook an electric line for a stop light connection? Sheesh.

Me too. I'm a Christian homeschooler myself, but my husband would be in serious danger of me if he let our son ride the peak of a house down the street.

Information correction: the 13-year-old was permitted a few times to ride homes with low peaks, while the homes moved at approximately 3-5m.p.h. The 11-year-old did not ride roof.
