used to be falls from monkey bars and trees until the schools ripped all the monkey bars out and kids dont climb trees because we have chopped them all down. its a slippery slide because now more than ever kids prolly should be doing more physical activity because with gaming consoles, nexflix subscriptions and mobile devices they tend to spend a lot of time behind screens instead these days ( fwiw adults as well) ,My sister in law is a doctor at the children’s hospital, she specialises in spinal injuries (there’s a name for it but can’t for the life of me remember what it is) she says jumping castles, play grounds, trampolines injuries and obviously car accidents are the 4 that kids get hurt the most on.
mate of mine got a go cart and mini bikes for his kids when he lived on a bit of land, they just sort of shrugged shoulders and migrated back into the air conditioned comfort of their gaming consoles. her stated when he was a kid he would have been wrapped.
