| Anybody else with an accident prone kid? Every summer and all year during school I get calls from camp about this or that; fall, scrape, and three head bumps in his life so far at ages 6, 9 and 12 (the head bumps have me really worried). |

Yes! This was my son at that age. Middle school was the worst, his head was getting hit frequently, to the point were I was looking for some type of physical therapist or someone who specialized in not hitting your head. LOL. And this was in a very athletic kid who played multiple sports.
The good news is it nearly all stopped when he reached high school. Had one incident in college with intramural sports and his ankle, but otherwise... I don't know if he developed a better sense of his body, or what changed. But it let me stop worrying about him hitting his head or hurting some other body part, to instead sweating it out when he's driving. |
