yeah, and had they let the kid off w a warning and he did a head plant a hour later I can imagine the shit storm that would have brewed. Great idea to let the air out of his tires.

The issue of helmet safety is a complex one, esp. for kids since I've yet to see a kid wearing a helmet properly. Usually they wear it pushed back so their foreheads are exposed. Might as well not bother in that case. The helmet is merely decorative.
