as seen, for instance, in USA Hockey's ban on
body checking at the Pee Wee hockey level and below, and limits on full - contact practices instituted at every level of football, from Pop Warner, to high school, college, and the NFL), will be a conscious one; a decision in which the risks of participating in a particular sport - provided it is based on the most up - to - date information about those risks and a consideration of other risk factors that might come into play for their child, such
as pre-existing learning disabilities (e.g. ADHD), chronic health conditions (e.g., a history of history of
multiple concussions or seizures, history of migraines), or a reckless and overly aggressive
style of play - are balanced against the benefits to the child of participating.
