Yes, I can understand the motherly instinct part.

However, regardless, some kids just won't take NO! for a answer. Some would play without legs at all. Now that I think about it, there was this story of a kid that actually played football without any legs at all. It's sad for us to watch, but I'm sure the handicap player is more concerned with making a play

But I do agree with you. Sometimes adults need to step if the injury is the type of injury that could possibly effect ones present and future health. Im not saying this was the case in the Sheldon Clark game. Kids just sometimes don't see the big picture. They can easily get too caught up in the moment and not realize how easily things could affect their future. I hope I make sense here because I tried Forgive me if I didnt

Perfect sense.:Thumbs:

That is what I was saying also. He wasn't a very big kid and if it was just a stress fracture, one 250 lb lineman falling on it would have snapped it in two. I just didn't see it in the best interest of the child to let him play on it.
