As people grow up, they can do many things on their own, and then they no longer need assistance from others. When you start riding, you may initially ride a bicycle with an auxiliary wheel. A bicycle with an auxiliary wheel will not tip over. Therefore, children who practice bicycles are not injured. If the child does not get hurt, the guardian will not be negligent. In other words, the auxiliary wheel is not intended to protect the rider, but to protect the guardian.

In order to become proficient in driving a bicycle

In order to become proficient in driving a bicycle, it was said that it would be more effective to remove the pedal instead of attaching an auxiliary wheel. The bicycle with the pedal removed moves forward by the child riding on it kicking the ground with both feet. As long as the child kicks the ground with his feet, the bicycle will not fall badly. However, the possibility of falling is not zero.
This training method is a little dangerous for children, and parents will be distracted. However, this is useful to know the instability inherent to bicycles. This may be faster to learn and improve compared to training using instability lost by auxiliary wheels.
Everything we do begins with imitation. At the imitating stage, there is no originality, and it is an activity that depends on others. However, we will eventually begin to do something on our own, and in that case, I think you should refuse assistance from others. I think it’s faster to get rid of a part of what you’re doing than to have an auxiliary wheel. I wonder if such a training method is also effective.

Carrefour thinks that suburban stores have plenty of storage space and want to introduce Fnac Darty’s home electronics store to increase the number of visitors.

But isn’t the independence of the two lost?

But isn’t the independence of the two lost in this cooperative relationship? Fnac Darty will trade under the name Carrefour. Carrefour is an accessory attached to attractive home appliances from Fnac Darty. They are dependent on each other.
If a company is not independent, I think it would be difficult to verify the sales results. I wonder if they can verify what went wrong or failed in the policy or plan. This isn’t just about business.

I haven’t been riding a bicycle recently. I walk when it is sunny, and I get on the bus when it rains. Bicycles feel convenient, but have a hard time in the parking space. That’s all for today’s post. Thank you
