[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My child is 15 and has had three concussions in his lifetime. The latest was this sports season. The pediatrician is telling him to quit sports. That seems extreme. They are not extreme concussions. Is this standard practice? The sport is lacrosse.[/quote] You suck as a parent. It is not "extreme" How do you not know this answer?[/quote] Also, he was told to quit all sports not just lacrosse. This was not his normal doctor, hence the lack of instant trust. To the people hurling insults, like this PP, you know nothing about me. I know more about you from your reply than you know about me from my question. [/quote] You could talk to another doctor about acceptable sports like cross country. Most people quit lacrosse, little league, soccer, gymnastics, ballet etc by the time they go to college. The goal should be to identify a life long fitness activity that doesn't put him at risk.[/quote]
