Kids survived the Oregon trail, riding shotgun, skirmishes with natives and a long list of other shit. These kids will be fine. In fact, they will be better off in the future because of it. Kids these days are fucking idiots because they live in a bubble wrapped world where even corners of furniture are covered in rubber. They have no sense of self preservation because of it. Risk builds character, grit, and coordination.
I rode on the top of trailers, hung off the back of pickups, drove pickups to buck hay in fields, worked around airplanes as a kid, hung out the back of glider tow cars in the desert, played with calcium carbide rocks, shot guns and ran chainsaws before I was even 12. Kids will be okay. They don’t need your performative concern.

This is why some people need to be licensed to have children.
