Now every kid I see riding a bike has one, is there a law for that now too? Or are they just worried about their kids getting CPS'd if they don't have a helmet.

Its all those trips to casualty with the little loves that fill you with 'what next?'. I guess I am an anxious parent. When son went out to Basra I tried phoning around to get him body armour with willy protection. I had a friend who knew one of the saudi royals about 45yrs ago, and she was ready if it all went pear shape, to make contact after all these years and ask for help. Other son too was a worry - like the day he put three leg pins in a wall socket. BANG! That one does wear a helmet when cycling through London. Parents worry, thats where all the grey hair comes from - its natural. I dont know what CPS is (crown prosecution service?) - most parents want their kids living life and enjoying it - whilst taking care of their own safety of course. They dont want their daughters taking short cuts home at night through dodgy areas, most parents would rather go out and get them. I think most parents dont want to have their grown child drooling out of the side of the mouth, have to feed it, change its nappy and wipe its arse all the while hoping their child will have some carer when they are dead, someone to show them continual love and kindness. Most parents dont want to be pall bearers at their childrens funerals.
Funny old lot arent we.
