Take their bikes away from them, their dangerous
Also take their shoes away from them, too dangerous to be outside walking. Do not allow them outside of their room, too many things to bump into. Do not let them outside, WAY too dangerous, what with insects that bite, poison ivy, etc. Round off all sharp corners in the home, including furniture, walls, etc, then pad everything with a minimum of 3" of closed cell foam, those hard walls and sharp corners are very dangerous. Do not EVER take a child in a car, there is a chance of an accident. Don't ever take a child in a boat, again, accidents happen. You must home school your children, it's way too dangerous to allow them on a school bus, and those school hallways are just way unsafe, what with hard walls and floors, a fall could be a disaster. A child should never, ever be allowed to play with another child, it's just too risky. The only downside that one may experience with this is their children might be inclined to join the military to get some real life experience instead of going to college. |

The playground is an accident waiting to happen. Skating? Oh, no! Hiking? Nope, risk of injury or death there! Camping?

Torg of Temple University's medical school, was the first to study this problem after 1975, when a dozen local football players suffered serious spinal injuries, with one dying and eight becoming quadriplegics. Torg recommended teaching athletes not to hit others with the top of their heads, instead training them to protect their spines. While there is still an average of six such injuries annually in the last 13 years, the safety campaign has clearly worked. Now, this kind of injury has become thankfully rare. "If you look at the actual chances of becoming a quadriplegic from football, it's one out of 192,000 players," Boden says. Injuries to ankles, knees, hands and so on, that's another story. Other risky sports: ice hockey, skydiving, scuba diving, cheerleading and gymnastics. Cheerleading and gymnastics? Absolutely, experts say. Cheerleading is actually the most injury-prone sport for women. Being tossed high into the air by teammates is risky business for the head and spine, and ankle injuries are common. But whether it's football, cycling or cheerleading, doctors say there are ways to keep safe. Rule No. 1: Don't get in over your head. "You have to compete at a level at which you're accustomed, and that's compatible with your level of talent," says Edward McFarland, an orthopedic surgeon at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore. Train slowly, working your way up to more strenuous play, and make sure you know the proper technique: Don't hit that double-black-diamond trail if you've just learned how to ski. Good gear is also key. "To reduce the risk of serious head injury and even save your life, wear the right type of helmet, when appropriate," Flecha says. Rule 2: Let things heal. After an injury, serious or not, stay on the sidelines until you're better, or you risk doing even more damage. "The smartest advice is, if something bothers you during or after, stop or do less, and don't do anything until it feels 100% better," says orthopedic surgeon Robert Marx, the orthopedic director of the Sports Medicine Institute for Young Athletes at New York City's Hospital for Special Surgery. Still, physicians caution that parents shouldn't over-hype the dangers of sports. The idea should be to play carefully, but definitely play. "You can't be overly injury-conscious, because you may lead children away from sports," Marx says. "The biggest problem we're having is that kids aren't doing enough, and there are high rates of childhood obesity." |

Who was the idiot that suggested that because some parents decide to let their kids be kids, albeit in a safe and controlled way, that somehow those parents are inferior and should be subjected to child endangerment laws? Who is it that suggested that a parent that allows their children to safely and responsibly participate in sports is somehow a bad parent? I rest my case.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Ypu're just not QUITE bright enough to answer the question, huh? ==================================== On June 5th didn't loogy post the following?

His posts this morning confirm that, including his trashing a boating thread I started. JimH, I am curious what you think about Harry, who has openly stated many times that he ONLY reads and posts in rec.boats to watch the (pick one) idiots, morons, assholes, low life's, scum, etc. make fools out of themselves. Some people take this and any NG way to seriously, and take insults and comments from others personally. Harry loves to pull their strings and has made a 15 yr career out of doing so in rec.boats. As you have said in 1000's of your posts to rec.boats, no one has had a negative impact on rec.boats as much as Harry. Now that you are Harry's friend you ignore his comments, but if you were honest with yourself you would admit this is true. Should loogie ignore Harry and not take any of his comments seriously? Sure! Absolutely! But Harry has always known who to tweak to get a great flame fest going, and Loogie is one of his favorite people to tweak today. It used to be you, and the fact that you were a non boating asshole, RepubliNazi, a Krazy Konservative Khristian, KonservaTrash who lived in a cookie cutter boring home, in a boring white bread and mayo suburb. Whom he directs the insults towards may change, but the insults are the same ones he used 15 yr ago. |
