As a member of a fire department Rescue Squad I can tell you that you and your friend are lucky to be alive.

Your parents are probably feeling a great deal of emotions. They are probably trying to get over the fear they had when they were called about the accident; the fear that your neighbor may sue them for their injuries. They are probably upset that you took the ATV out, possibly without their permission; their relief that your injuries are not serious.

As a 16 year old you may have a part-time job; if so you could offer to help pay for the repairs. If the ATV had some type of Insurance coverage you could offer to reimburse your parents the deductable they have to pay toward the repairs or replacement. This would be the adult thing to do. If you have not already done so an apology would probably go along way as well.

I have only one other suggestion for you before you get back on an ATV. That is that you take a safe operators course. If you do not know where one is offered ask the dealership you purchased it from, or any dealership that sells ATV’s for that matter, as they should know where the course is offered. One other thing always wear a safety helmet when riding an ATV.
