If anyone saw GMTV today. Heelys made news as a dangerous toy. Whilst I have my reservations about them (from a Mum's point of view) I view them as similar to skateboards,in-line skates, old fashioned roller skates etc. It seems that kids can't win. They are either in trouble for sitting playing computer games and lack of exercise or viewed as irresponsible for participating in a dangerous sport.
I think it's common sense that kids wear the same protection gear as what they use for skateboards, skates etc.
