It is absolutely irresponsible to give your kid a ride without all of the gear. I also go as far as to say that it's irresponsible to give anyone a ride without all of the gear, even if they are adults. AGTATT. period. If a person says that it's ok, then they also likely think it's ok to give passengers the option to not wear seatbelts in a car. The only people who should have the choice are those at the controls, who are also adults.
