This wicked, high risk, thrill seeking activity has been killing for DECADES! Education and warning are crucial.. tell kids before another kid tells them 'what a good time it is' or 'don't worry, it's safe, it's not like drugs', it's not illegal'...kids teach kids.<BR/>Thank you for speaking out, and being a voice for David...<BR/>Love to you and yours,<BR/>Sarah Pacatte, Gabriel Mordecai's Mom<BR/>StillLovingMyGabriel.com<BR/>DeadlyGamesChildrenPlay.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11850330.post-1156478960033440732006-08-25T00:09:00.000-04:002006-08-25T00:09:00.000-04:00I am so sorry for your loss.

Even I, who didn't take risks as a teenager, at age 20 did something risky when I went to Lebanon and Syria in 1972. Later, as a parent of teenagers, I always felt lucky that my kids were generally careful and didn't take unnecessary risks (at least that I know of). The key work here is "lucky," because, as much as you tell your children to be careful, depending on their personality and other factors, they may or may not heed your words. Parents need guidance in dealing with teenage risk-taking, so as to lessen the chance of it being fatal.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11850330.post-1144234916905540302006-04-05T07:01:00.000-04:002006-04-05T07:01:00.000-04:00I'm so sorry for your loss.
