Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Wearing helmets while skateboarding and bicycling can greatly reduce the risk of head injuries in case of a fall or accident. It is always better to take precautionary measures rather than avoiding the activity altogether, and wearing helmets can ensure that children can continue to participate in these activities safely. Riding in the back seat of passenger vehicles and avoiding contact sports may also help reduce the risk of head injuries, but they are not as directly related to skateboarding and bicycling as wearing helmets. Avoiding dangerous activities altogether is not a practical solution as children need to engage in physical activities for their overall health and development.
