My observations included watching my neighbor’s children on their trampoline. When I was observing, I noticed a lot of developmental differences between the oldest and youngest siblings. The oldest was a 6-year-old girl jumping on her trampoline. I could tell the girl was very passionate towards her workout. The first 5 minutes of my observations included her being by herself, while her younger brother was playing in the grass with his red truck and train. His full attention was on his toys for a while. I never realized how focused some kids can actually be.
Indeed, the safety of children is the main purpose of this article, so he provided us with a series of studies to confirm his argument. For example, some psychologists have shown the pattern: A child who’s hurt in a fall before the age of 9 is less likely as a teenager to have a fear of heights. They believe that if the children are allowed to go outside their safety zone, they will learn how to accept obstacles as well as hard situations. They will be stronger and more willing to confront new challenges as time goes by. Moreover, Dr. Ball said. “If children and parents believe they are in an environment which is safer than it actually is, they will take more risks." And a real example, Nayelis Serrano, a 10-year-old from the South Bronx, she used to play jungle gyms. Her experience about that game is so wonderful. She was scared it at first, but she kept continuing to the top of bar, and she won. She said. “I’d like to see it in our playground. Why not? It’s kind of dangerous, I know, but if you just think about danger you’re never going to get ahead in life.”
In fact, the definition of “playground” is “an outdoor area provided for children to play on, especially at a school or public park.” (dictionary.com) Meaning that parks or playground were never intended to have people use their imagination when there. Last time I checked people went to parks to play with friends or do something physical. After my research I want my future kids to be able to take the necessary risks. I believe (and at this point you should too) that children should have the freedom to head off fears before they start, meaning there should be healthy risks at every playground or
In article one, Tear Down the Swing Sets, Nicholas Day has given us reasons why playground designs have changed over time. One reason is child safety. Days research shows on lines 35, he has stated," But there's this sense that if you talk about it that's enough. There's this very real reluctance to get involved in anything that might at least potentially cause an injury." This example shows that playgrounds

Though this argument may seem accurate, it does not fully explain some of the major health risks and what the parents and coaches are doing to prevent as many injuries as possible. In conclusion, young athletes should play sports because, youth sports can be a learning experience or it can be a health risk to the athletes. The three main points are how sports keep you healthy, how they build character, and the values that they will learn from sports and how they will use them in the future. Even though there are many health risks involved, the coaches and parents are doing the best they can to prevent their child from getting hurt.
Ed. Teachers all over the country. It’s called ‘The New P.E.’ The idea is to get away from traditional, competitive games, and move more to what some are calling ‘nurturing, prosocial behavior’ kind of activities” Kids will still get hurt in the New P.E., so just getting rid of dodgeball will not remove all injuries! If there is an accident, you kiss it, stick a band-aid on it, and deal with it!

The first reason football is absolutely unsafe is because they’re have been fatal injuries through all levels of football critics often argue that injuries are apart of life and most people get injured in their lifetime however, those injuries can lead to fatal situations in the future. For example, Scott Hallenbeck said even if he had a young son he still wouldn’t let him play football because of the risk of injury.

First and foremost, people do not realize how dangerous cheer is on the competitive side; they think they just yell cheers and wave their pom poms around (Wright). For example, “Thirty years ago, cheerleading routines consisted primarily of toe-touch jumps, the splits, and claps. Today, cheerleading routines incorporate gymnastic tumbling runs and partner stunts, consisting of human pyramids, lifts, catches, and tosses” (Shields). Furthermore, studies have shown that cheerleading may be more of a dangerous sport than football when done wrong. In fact, cheerleading was seventy percent of all major injuries from the last twenty-seven years.
If my school was considering buying a large trampoline I would be against it because it has the potential to cause a lot of injuries. Experts estimate more than 100,000 people get injured every year using a trampoline. A way the students could get hurt is if they bounce too high and land off the trampoline or onto the springs. Another way the students could get hurt is they try to do flips and if they land it the wrong way they could get severely injured. One last way the students could get injured is in paragraph five it says, “ Most trampoline injuries happen at home. Since trampolines are more affordable than ever, injuries are even more common.” These are some of the reasons why I am against the school getting the trampoline.
