Hello!

my 7 yr old watches too much u tube. he has become interested in parkour. ive just enrolled him in some local classes. so glad he’s off the screen. but a little worried he could break his neck lol. thoughts?

  • I think parkour is very impressive but I always worry about what happens if things go wrong. It’s not something I would want my child to do.


  • I’m obviously a bit out of the loop here cos I’ve never heard of parkour :/ But if he’s having classes and being taught how to go things by a professional, that could be a good thing.


  • i’ve stopped my son watching all parkour videos as he continually does it everywhere! walking down the street, at school and out in the shops. but classes sound like a great idea if it helps him hone energy and do something he enjoys – all sporting and fitness activities come with injury risks!
