My little boy got pushed into

He's growing up.

1. How old is he? My 14-year-old daughter has been

to a few concerts (I go, too, and stand in the back) where she's been in the jam toward the front. She went to one recent concert with three friends. The three emerged from the pit one at a time crying and shaken up. When my daughter didn't come out, I started to get worried. There were paramedics taking kids out of the crush. Finally, just before the last song, daughter came out explaining she was thirsty and wondering where her friends had gone. One tough kid, but I really wish she'd let me buy her a seat in the loge.

2. He's 13...

went with his cousin and some of his cousin's friends (they're all older...Zeb is 20, I think) and his cousin stuck with him when he got shoved in. He came home saying it was the scariest thing he's ever done.

And wants to go again.

3. Kids love it. You're lucky he had an older cousin to

look out for him. It can be dangerous in there, though, and the "security" personnel are apparently there only to assist those who've already fainted or been injured. They aren't there, and don't try, to prevent the kids from being crushed/hurt in the first place.

4. They grow so fast...

7. Well, that looks like fun, not.

The kid down the street broke his arm doing that.

8. My parents wouldnt let me go to a CREED concert

when I was that old, a fuckin CREED concert, I had backstage passes! Much less would they let me go to a real concert. Way to go for being awesome and understanding
