[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. The sport DOES have a high concussion rate, and is not one where helmets are used. One other team-mate is out of school for the second week, not just benched, with concussion. I'm not a sports fan, in fact I was startled when DC took up this sport. My older DC has a classmate with a knee replacement at 15, who still plays soccer...I don't know... [/quote] You are wavering. The thing is one more concussion and there will be no question, plus more damage will be done. And don't you think there WILL be another concussion? Why are you waiting for that, the likelihood that your DC will play all through high school (unless you really are reckless and let him continue after another concussion) is pretty low. So now is the time to switch him to a different sport. And if the only reason is that you are afraid of disappointing him, thats not a reason.[/quote]
