Coaching is one of those parenting tasks that is fulfilling and which I will value for the decades to come and so on and so forth and also something that is not what one would call "fun" or "enjoyable" or "something I look forward to."

You may laugh, but the Macbeths are a much better role model for a marriage than Romeo and Juliet. They discuss their problems (killing the king of Scotland), share their hobbies (killing the king of Scotland), and resolve their conflicts (by killing the king of Scotland).

It is also literally true that far fewer kids are dying of injuries these days.

This is one of those issues where risk mitigation can result in individual-level benefits and lives saved and society-level costs.
