My daughter wants to go play soccer, but she is worried that she will get hurt. She is afraid that she will break a leg or get scars, but she still wants to play soccer. She told me that she wants to play soccer like her older sister, but doesn't want to get hurt. She saw her older sister get hurt in a soccer game and now she is scared to death, but still wants to play! What should I tell her. These kids are between ages 5-10. Oh, please don't say that it's not likely for her to get hurt in a kids' game because I've seen some pretty nasty accidents in a kids' soccer game before. So I can't tell my daughter that she won't get hurt, because she might. I don't want her to get hurt, but every sport does have a few risks if you know what I mean. And if she gets really into soccer in the next few years, will the possibility of her getting hurt increase? What would you do in this situation?
