This could be a child, grandchild, sister, brother, cousin etc. Step 2: Think of an adult, approximately 80 years of age who you love and care for. This could be a parent, grandparent, friend etc. Step 3: Ask yourself: Would you send that 8 year old along with the 80 year old on a walk, or a bike ride on that infrastructure?
