To Anyone Who Is Debating Therapy

[Guest guest]

Hi. My son has worn his helmet for 9 months, and has 3 more to go.

It has been a very long journey, but well worth it for him. I'm not

exactly sure how to put this without sounding very negative, but I'll

try. Getting a helmet for your child is the most unselfish thing a

parent can do. To put yourself through the emotional, and time

consuming process is something you will not regret. People in this

group say that it is a personal decision whether or not to treat

their child, and I completely disagree. This is a decision that you

have to make for someone who is completely helpless, and will be

affected for the rest of their lives by the decision that you make.

One of the doctors that we saw went as far as saying that child

protection services should be notified if a parent does not treat a

child who has more than a mild case of plagio. So anyway, instead of

thinking of this as a personal decision that you have to make to make

yourself feel better, think of it as a decision that you are making

for someone you brought into this world who is depending on you to

make the right choice. For them. Lori.
