Everyday Philosophy: Should we ban children from playing dangerous sports?
Briefly

"It's always a risky thing to make sweeping generalizations about a country, especially when you're an outsider, but it seems to me that a great many Americans take their sports very seriously."
"Year after year, American football ranks as the most popular sport in the US, both in terms of school and college participation (for men) and overall viewership."
"So, I will need to tread carefully with this question... dangerous or aggressive contact sports more broadly. These are sports that are both physically violent and pose a not-insignificant risk of serious injury."
