Whenever I see a parent do that to a child, I get nervous that the parent might drop the baby and kill it.

Like why the fuck would anyone do something like this? How stupid do you have to be to think that something like this is ok?

That's a you problem. Kids and parents enjoy having fun so they do just that.

Actually that's a good point, that should probably be illegal.

It's all fun and games until the kid breaks their neck because their parent was turning them into a projectile

My nieces absolutely loved being tossed into the air. They would giggle and squeal with joy at every toss. It's easy to not drop them.

This is the worst argument of all time. There are any number of dangerous things that a small child might find fun that you shouldn't engage in, because you're an adult and should know better.

Hundreds of tosses, not a single one resulted in a drop or even a slight fumble. You exaggerate the "danger". If you're an uncoordinated doofus then yeah, it's best that you refrane from tossing kids. But otherwise it's fine.

I'm amazed serious accidents haven't happened with this round here it's very common. I used to do it with my niece all the time when I was a kid. We were more like brother and sister. It was fun back then but looking back as an adult now it's very sketchy. My actual sister used to get mad if I tossed my niece too high. Though I mostly did it on the bed so the mattress was always beneath us just in case.

I'd argue that parents do hundreds of things every day more dangerous than that. Simply riding in a car for example. Or walking down stairs with your baby

Because it's a non issue. People don't have a baby dropping problem unless they're idiots

So what kid do you know that had fun like this and got injured? You seem very opinionated on the subject and you don't have kids yourself so enlighten me. My stance comes from my niece and nephews mostly. Watching them grow up is always rewarding.

This. It's always dumb dickheads without kids trying to tell people how to raise kids lol. Guarantee that almost 100% of kids have been tossed in the air and caught. It's fun for kids
