Personally my favorite part is that we have „Pfand“ on almost all beverages and bottles by now, to recycle and keep the empty bottles and cans out of streets and nature… basically we „pay“ a few cents for every bottle or can, and if we bring it back to the store, we get the money back and they sort, recycle, clean or destroy, or send the empty bottles and cans to places that do that….

My oldest niece is 10 now.
She could ride a bike without training wheels 2 month before her 4th birthday.
Thanks to the balance bikes.
She had also a bike accident, this year on vacation.
She got distracted and rode into a wall but she kept balance while doing it.
Yes children are able to keep balance on a bike at young age, but there are others dangers too.

Training wheels prevent the child from learning to balance. It's double work having to learn to bike twice!
We put a broom stick down behind the saddle for an adult to hold on to, and walk/run next to the kid's bike. When the kid goes too fast for you to follow you shout "You're on your own now!"

So, are portable card readers not a thing in the US? I’m in Britain and our restaurants bring the reader to your table the same as in Germany. In fact, every business here has card readers even little market stalls and so on. I haven’t carried cash for several years now…

German toddlers running aound on standing bikes since 1817

My mother sat on a bench and as I fell She shouted: stop crying and get back up. I never had training wheels or a balance bike

I live in Sweden.

1) I've seen a few balance bikes, but the tricycles are still main way.
2) We have VHS here in Sweden as well. They are called almost the same thing, but in Swedish (instead of Volk, we say Folk). It's so normal to me, that i didn't even think it's a thing. Folkhögskola translates nearest to "People's college" (or Communal college). There's really no good translation of the word högskola. Direct translation is highschool, but that's not the same level of school. If the word is högskola (only) it means that it is a university/college level school (after high school). We also have a thing called yrkeshögskola (Professional college). Which is a school where you can study towards an actual profession (often sponsored in different ways by corporations) instead of a more science/research-oriented education you get at a university/college. You get a diploma, but not a degree.

I actually learned accounting at the VHS - even with a proper certification, as you can get for classes which teach you a marketable skill.

I am german and to be honest: I never owned or needed a credit card in my life! I don't even know how to use them or how they work! :-/ *seufz

About taking a creditcard out of sight...
That is because cloning (dublicate) a card is easy done... and that is what we fear.
Most of the time the PIN is required, when paying. Paying with signature is mostly only for small payments (50, -€ max).
So if criminals have a clone card and the PIN, they can easyly steal thousands of € in just a few hours just by running from one ATM to the next.

And don't forget, German children learn how to swim at an early age. There even is baby swimming and we have swim lessons at school, at least when I was in school. So putting a fence around a pool is weird.

To copy a credit card you need less than a minute, 3 weeks later you'll have no idea who is misusing your account... I don't recommend to hand out a card for a single second

Aussie cars all have towing capacities as well. Small cars tow small things etc

[MrApocalyptica]

On road in Europe the trail can't exceed half the weight of a car with empty fuel tank in the limit of 3.5t for all parts with a simple driving licence and

[helmutvogel]

About the card fraud, if a restaurant did it, word would get out and there would go their business. Not worth the risk.

[chipsthedog]

We've all seen the strong man contests where some dude will pull a bus or even a jumbo jet so of course a small car can tow something much larger. Not sure how good it is for the engine but definitely should not be a surprise

[crusher]

Just as feedback, I think you should turn up the volume of your mic. The difference between the volume of the video and your mic is too big.

[lillibitjohnson]

I just have my name on my license plate so that I don’t forget who I am :)) lol

[WienerVL]

Never had a credit card and dont want! I also never pay with cards any kinds!
