I think also first time they a kid they'll be extra cautious they don't know if the parent will freak out because they did something or didn't. Surely you know that some parents a frakaziods and think their kid has to live in a bubble and eat rice cakes. Until they see how the parent reacts I can understand there caution. You merely posted it here the poloar opposite would have made a massive deal of it and had Vegan muffin baking fit. Imagine what it must be like to deal with bubble boys parents. Probably have to drink goats milk and eat Vegan approved pancakes while in a drum circle to shut the parent up.

Actually, the bubble kids are easy, just time consuming. The parents usually listen and follow advice. On my end, the most difficult thing is they take the kids to the family doctor for every little ache. Then the doctor says rest a week then you'll be okay. Evan the little aches that they can go back and play. It's the parents that think all kid's injuries are minor that are a problem. They don't listen to advice. In denial that the arm that's dangling in mid-shaft is broken and will argue about it. They tend to not do what is needed to get the kid healthy.
