My daughter’s ex-husband has decided that it is safe to take my granddaughter (who is just five) on the back of his motorcycle. He has parental responsibility and there is no prescribed lower age limit in England and Wales (which staggers me), but I cannot believe she has the strength or concentration to hold on safely.
I tried a reasonable and measured approach of asking him to consider the safety, but he stood by his rights to do as he pleased and threatened action against my daughter should we take things further.
