[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If PP understands concussions, as she claims, she's the only one!! [/quote] "These changes in the brain can begin months, years, or even decades after the last brain trauma or end of active athletic involvement." http://www.bu.edu/cte/about/what-is-cte/[/quote] Agreed. I was responding to Ms. "I understand physics, I understand concussions and I understand CTE is a real problem. I just don't want some mom freaking out because their 5 year old hit the ball with their head." My child has had to have years of neuro-rehab at a clinic run by researchers of national importance, and they'll tell you very plainly that there is much they don't understand about concussions. And, for the record, I can't believe children are still allowed to hit balls with their heads! How is the risk worth it?!! [/quote]
