Absolutely mortified but was I unreasonable?

I took my just gone five year old bowling earlier. There are also arcade games, dodgems, a soft play etc.

There is a ride which is two big carousel style horses with reins that ‘gallop’ on the spot. There is a sign saying no under fives so DN was excited he was finally old enough to go on. I lifted him onto one horse and I sat on the other. Halfway through, a young man came over and told me to get off because the ride is for kids. I did, although he watched me undo the belt and get off as if I was a criminal.

WIBU to go on?

Forget it. No need for a long face.

Difficult to say without seeing the size if the horses.
I really wouldn't givw it another thought though

Your son or nephew? Conflicting information.

Mountain meets molehill.

He asked you to get off and you did 🤷‍♂️

Thanks, but I didn’t ask what happened.
