My daughter has wrestled, soccer, softball and gymnastics and martial arts. Zero Concussions.

I had a few concussions as well as a knocked out episode as a child and so far so good for me.

I am aware of CTE and so are my children.  I will allow them to do what they desire to do academically and athletically.  It could be worse. They could be the age they are now and be out of shape and mush for brains due to constant electronics.  I am ok with My decision and I will leave it up to my kids to walk away when they feel ready.  If something were to happen to them from sports, it was from something they loved doing. [/quote]
