What Would Make Him Do This???

My boyfriend does this all the time, he and his friends go out to this highway and stunt their bikes for hours. He has crashed 3 times (none while stunting, and none his fault), but he still goes and does dangerous stuff all the time. I refuse to even go watch now if he's going to stunt. I hate hearing horror stories about bike accidents!

Has he recently gotten the knife? I know when my sons were younger, if they got something like they had to try it out immediately. (Just made a bad choice on locations, didn't he)

My cousin when he was really little got a pocketknife from his dad. My grandparents were watching him for the day and he decided to carve on a little tree that Grandpa had planted in the front yard. When Grandpa found out what he had done he told Mark that he'd better pray that the tree lived or he was in BIG trouble. Later Grandpa found him beside the tree praying. That was about 25years ago and the tree is still there!!!
