Yes, conflicted
So at least two of you have heard of Parkour, and it seems you have the same reaction I did.
It is so totally cool. And even cooler to see your 15 year old son doing these incredible athletic feats.
It is also so totally obviously dangerous. Especially when it's your 15 year old son doing it.
And I did feel conflicted about this. I want to say "WOW Spike, that's INCREDIBLE! I can't believe you scaled that 3-story building! I can't believe how you swung from the roof-tops like that!"
And then I also want to say "Are you out of your MIND??? I FORBID you to do this!!!!"
I did tell him I wanted to set two rules: No jumping off second story buildings (I saw him on tape jumping from a one-story roof), and no jumping roof to roof, which is featured in many of the internet videos.
And from here, as a parent, all I can do is cross my fingers and hope he stays safe.
