[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can get a concussion playing any sport but clearly some sports are much more of a risk. I would have no trouble letting my DC run if they've had several concussions because its very unlikely to happen during running and the benefits far outweigh the risks.[/quote] I understand your viewpoint for your specific child, but it is different for a child that is passionate for a sport, plays at the varsity level in 8th grade and will more than likely play in college and possibly beyond. Do you have a child like that? Do you understand what that entails?[/quote] I have children who are like that in music and performing arts. They are extremely talented. They would love to start professional careers right NOW. The answer is "No." I don't need a Justin Bieber/Lindsey Lohan/Britney Spears on my hands in 10 years. Grow up. Be a fucking parent. Say "no."[/quote]
