I'm not trying to question authority or anything, but I don't really understand what all the fuss is about the sledding. I mean, maybe I just don't understand something because I'm muggleborn, but quidditch seems just as dangerous? I mean, you're way up high on brooms jostling each other, and there are two iron balls enchanted to attack you and try to knock you off your broom. People get hurt plenty at that, right? And there were broken bones and concussions from hockey the other day, too.

And I get that there was underage drinking, and people were hurt and there was no healer on hand, but if people do this every year anyway, why don't they just turn it into a school sanctioned event? Staff being there would keep people from drinking, and Mufferaw could be there to fix any injuries.

~~Or is it just that we're only allowed to endanger ourselves for sports? You're allowed to get a concussion as long as it's something you can win at?~~

	I am gonna agree with you here. Perhaps we just don't get it. I mean isn't Quodpot or whatever it is even more dangerous than quidditch? Anyway, I dunno. I just love sledding. Petition to make school sanctioned event? (Reply to this) (Thread)

Right! I mean, quodpot is like quidditch, but with explosions.

And what's a broken arm, anyway, with magic? Muggles have to sit through it the old fashioned way, but with magic, it's over in a couple of days.

I thought that might be a good idea, but apparently I'm awful for thinking maybe it could be school sanctioned, because a hill is the most dangerous thing ever.

	Broken arm much easier fix with magic, rather than letting it actually heal. I've done that. Whatever, I don't regret doing it. I got a few bruises and detention but hey. Whatever. (Reply to this) (Parent)
