When Maddox turned 11, he did not get an electronic gadget or other item some 11-year-old boys would jump for joy over, he got a Suzuki DRZ-125 motorbike. The motorbike purchase was confirmed to E! News by the manufacturer.
A source close to the family says, "He wants the boys to be able to ride them on private land. It'll be a fun thing for them to do, and obviously he has a real passion for bikes which he'd like to pass on." The bike is made for the youth market and has a top speed of 50 miles per hour.
Some critics may give Brad a hard time for buying a potentially dangerous toy for an 11 year old. I however, think that Angelina and Brad have made their children a top priority in their lives and am confident that all the important safety measures will be followed.
While I would not purchase this type of present for my child, I am really a nervous nelly when it comes to my kids (I almost have a heart attack when my kids are allowed on the dock in my parent’s backyard to fish). But I can see the benefit of getting your child a gift that they will really love.
So, would you buy your 11 year old a motorbike or other “dangerous” toy?
