DontPanic 0 #9 October 14, 2010 I think I had somewhere around 15 jumps before I told my parents, and I was 42 at the time. It took about 3 years after that before my Dad got tired of trying to lay a guilt trip on me to quit skydiving whenever it came up. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wmw999 2,439 #11 October 14, 2010 My mother came to watch my first jump; I was 20. She figured if I was going to die she wanted to be there . I was self-supporting -- why hide anything? Wendy P. There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence.

Some families are just impossible about certain things, and that's that. Period. I started jumping as soon as I turned 18. I was living away at college, so there was no parental scrutiny. I was well on my way to an A license before I told my dad. There was good reason for that: to say he was completely unsupportive is an understatement. My mom was the hysterical type of mom to grow up with. If you haven't experienced that, boy did you miss out on a treat. I think I was around 40 when I finally told her.

I started at 18 as well, still at home and a rebellious teen I didn't say anything because 'it's none of their business'. Day of my last S/L and 1st FF I was getting ready to leave the house and Pops said how about I come along and take pictures? Don't know HOW he knew but he did come out...brought the camera & beer...and became a DZ regular with his Nikon! Then again, he DID fly me around a lot in his CUB when I was about 3... ~ If you choke a Smurf, what color does it turn? ~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Melissa126 0 #15 October 14, 2010 My parents thought it was great that I was going to go do a tandem... then I did another, and another...Although I live on my own they soon noticed I was disappearing every sunny weekend, and selling my things on craigs list! They realized I was going through aff when the log book came, Mom thought every time I left I was committing suicide, and Dad couldn't believe I was "wasting all my hard earned money and how will I Ever live the american dream and buy a house and retire"... One day he showed up at the dz ( I didn't even know he knew where it was )... thought for sure he was going to drag me out of there by my hair... But, he came with a camera and wanted to get some pics of me landing p.s. I hide my rig in a luggage bag. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

deviate 0 #18 October 15, 2010 I called my mum (in the UK) before I did my first tandem in Australia (7y ago). Mum: "Be careful, and call me after". I liked it so much, I did a second straight away. In all of the excitement I forgot to call her --Epic fail She took okay and believes that "no news is good news". I'm going to do my AFF but I'm not going to tell my parents until I've got about 50 jumps. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
