Kute, having a horse is a big responsibility. They can be a pain in the rear at times like goats, and I'm doubtful if your Mom'll let you even consider getting one.

Edit: they are nice to look at though. :)

Actually, she has had guidelines set into getting one. So far she isn't old enough to have met them apparently. Horses are a big responsibity and one that she will have to be ready to take on before we will talk further about it.

Guidelines are good. :) Another thing with horses is that if one wants to have one they have to find a way to make a use of them instead of as pasture ornaments or riding pleasures if one wants to make money off of them to compensate for the expenses they create with hay, straw, facilities and other things like saddles, leads, etc.

If I were to get one I probably won't know what to do with it except ride the "range" and keep the grass down along with the cows, nothing more. Plus it'd be a huge learning curve for me as well.
