Anybody who has never feared at any time at least a little for their personal safety has lived a pretty sheltered life, IMO. In fact, many people choose to do things in their lives specifically because they feel those activities are a little edgy.



No doubt. But, the issue I attempted to raise was life threatening events not of your own making while you were a child–not after HS and as an adult.

Does “a little less cushy” translate to your son not having been “coddled” as a child?
