Why do people treat questioners like they are 2?

bike helmets 2 year olds image

I had asked a question about detatchable stirrups for children, so my 2 year old sister can start to ride. I got some answers, but a few people got into a whole shpeal(sp) about making sure she wears a helmet, a certified one, not a bike helmet. I am not stupid, and I know these things. I did not ask anything about this in my question and would really appriciate people treating me like the age I am. I am wondering if it is common on Y answers to be treated like this, or is it just horse people that are so condescending? Maybe I am over reacting? I dont know, I just hate when people think I am stupid or something. ANY idiot knows that when a child is riding to wear a good horseback riding helmet. THANKS!
I do disagree. Yes any idiot knows to wear a helmet on a young child. And also I hate stereotypical assholes. Western riders are not the only ones who do not wear helmets on their children, and I refuse to let some "know it all" talk like western riders are the 'stupid' ones. That is not fair to all of the smart people, that just because they ride western means that they do not know to wear a helmet on their child. Every mother cares about their child, I treat my sister like she is my own, and it bothers me to think that western riding mothers do not treat their kids with the same safety as English riding mothers do. Please do not stereotype riders. It is unfair, and you information is not nearly as correct as you think it is.

Answer
People are very rude, and that is the only reason for it. They know that you know to wear a helmet on your sister, they just want others to think their question exceeds the "expectations"

What to use for a 14wk baby and 2 yr old in a bike trailer? Helmets too big and car seat won't fit!?

I have a bike trailer for my two babies but I don't know how is best to keep my 14week old safest. A helmet won't fit until at least 18 months and her car seat won't fit in with my 2 year old as well :0( Don't want to be stuck in a stuffy, hot car all summer so would really like to keep fit and take them out on the bike! Help!! Thanks in advance :0)

Answer
The infant in the car seat cannot ride with the toddler -- so just get a bicycle child seat http://www.amazon.com/Bell-Classic-Bicycle-Child-Carrier/dp/B000ISXSSA for the toddler -- kid will be much happier being up there behind you and watching around the road. Also should be available at Target, locally.
