Have you ever ridden a horse? Yes, I started riding when I was twelve and got my first horse when I was fourteen.

I used to be in a special needs horse riding program, it was fun at first, but the games were too easy, and after my favorite horse retired, I just left. I always had trouble riding the bigger horses, because of my bad hips (the reason I was not in normal horse riding), and I never had much fun with the games, because they were designed to be easier for disabled people. looking back, with the horse trainers using that "sweet little disabled simple conversation'' type voice, (if you know you know. basically talking to me, a nine year old at the time, like I was some stupid little kid) and not actually letting me learn how to ride a horse, (probably something about liabilities, or some kind of overprotective safety policy), I just think it was a very misguided attempt to make me feel "normal". so that's my experience with horse riding.

Yes
Once for my fifth birthday and once for my twelfth (?) birthday. The second time I got bucked off. For the record, I did get back on…but I have not ridden since (I would like to, just hasn’t happened).
