Call me a worry wart, but after seeing the damage sustained to Fury 325 at Carowinds on TikTok just now, I'm convinced roller coasters ain't it. Like damn, the track was sagging and the pillars were swaying.

Millions of people ride coasters each year, you're going to have a lot more dangerous things to worry about when having kids.

Even so, there's still an undeniable fear factor I might need to get over. But it'll need acknowledgement.

Well you shouldn't stop your child from having fun because u get anxiety over something they want to do even tho it's safer than driving which is an activity ull do with them quite often I imagine

Edit: readability

The thing is. Why would I intentionally risk death by other people’s incompetence when it comes to building and maintaining safe rollercoasters?

You could ride 10 roller coasters a day and you’re less likely to die than if you get in a car.
