The easiest part of your job will be fixing the idler , the hardest part is all the rest.
I would depending on age implement some accountability , they pay some how to offset your additional workload.
It sadly is something that seems to be a thing of the past accountability , you broke it , you fix it or pay to get it fixed
My other pet hate whilst I am going is Abrogation of responsibility , it is always some one else who is to blame , I trip over , who can I sue
Regards
Oz

Hit a limestone planter in the front yard and knocked it down when I was 10.. Had to pay to have that repaired too! I didn't even want to mow the yard!

It took over 10 years but vengeance was mine when my Dad hit the EXACT SAME PLANTER and knocked it down again.

I remember when I was a kid probably 10 or 11 I went driving through the pasture on the 1200 found a mud hole and you know what happened. I buried it up over the deck had to get mom to pull me out before dad got in from the field! Then wash it all up. Least I didn't break anything.

I've gotten dad's cub stuck many times and washed off before he knew about it.

I'm pretty sure getting a cub stuck is actually a requirement of ownership in the manual. Like oil changes.

This is a good teaching moment for both kids and parent. I only say this as I have had a couple of these myself. I have made adjustments and set some boundaries and thus far, things have been good. I am just thankful I have some kids that enjoy being outdoors instead of behind a video game controller all day long, just want to cherish the time I have with them because it will be gone all too soon. Good luck!

I was out in my workshop the other day with my boy, he's 3. He loves the tools and the tractors and while we were out the he grabbed a screw driver and stared walking towards my freshly painted 108, he was saying he was gonna work on the tractor to which I replied ' if you put a scratch in that tractor im gonna put a scratch in your butt ' only I used the other word for butt.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
