Had I known this was rhetorical, I wouldn't have responded. Sorry.

But it's ridiculous to say that we should wear something to be an example to the kiddies. Kids wear protective gear because they are playing the game and because we, as adults, make decisions for them regarding their safety.

BTW, I wear a helmet. Safety plays no part in that decision.
