Oppressed? Come on.
The road thing is a legit concern.
concussions are a legit concern. They haven't stopped football players form tackling.
A Number of schools have high school cycling teams do they make them cycle only on school grounds?
Thousands of people drown every year. The swim team still practices in a pool.
Red meat causes cancer proven by science. They still have a deli section in the lunch room.
And lastly the driving age is still 18 and we let kids drive to school.
The fact is this there are a million things that could kill a kid. If we let them drive on the roads, we should let them run on the sidewalk.
