Reading that post, in my opinion, shows a problem that no set of laws will fix.
Regardless of what size/type of bike is ridden, the rider with no respect for the road and what motorcycles can do will always find themselves in trouble in the long run (and more often than not, the short run as well).
I can understand how a smaller bike will teach fundamentals (I learned on mini bikes and dirt bikes), but if the rider has wheelies and street races in mind, it won't matter how long they ride a small bike. The end goal is still the same in their mind.
Ps. If that was my son, after the first fall on that bike, it would have been taken away. It's not my place to parent, I'm just making a note.
