There really isn't a way to teach someone balance. You learn part of it on your own when you learn how to walk. A bike isn't much different in terms of how you train your body to react.
I think she was just trying to guilt trip a stranger on an internet forum over a facetious comment.

I don't really remember my parents helping my learn to ride a bike, I think I learnt with my sister and a bunch of friends.

I remember using training wheels on my bike, which actually worked... because they were so crappy, that both wheels never touched the ground at once. (or maybe that was the point, I dunno)
So while I was riding, I would practice remaining on the bike wheels without letting any training wheels touch the ground. When I got good at doing that, I got my dad to take off one of the training wheels and kept doing the same thing until I was confident enough to take the remaining training wheel off.

THEN I JOINED A BIKE GANG.

Oh good, I thought you were reacting to a comment made in jest by revealing some deep seated childhood issue in an attempt to make me look like a dick.

Glad that's not what you were doing.

A bike gang?
I can tell you were one of the cool kids.
We played cops and robbers using bikes.
That's primarily a game played on foot, but we used bikes!
I don't know if you have such sophisticated games like Cops and Robbers in the US, but it was great.

Haha... no. We were kids. All the kids from the neighborhood decided that we would be a bike gang. We wanted to be bad ass. We had our Huffy Bandits, Mongoose wannabes, Diamonback knockoffs... and whatever knives we could steal from the kitchen so we could carry them on our person and feel bad ass.

We stabbed a frog once.
We all felt bad, then decided to disband.
