What's Your Opinion?

Question: Some Parents have said "Heelys" - the popular sneakers that have tiny wheels on each heel, allowing children to either walk or roller skate - should be regulated because they could be dangerous. What do you think?
 | | "I've seen those sneakers. Ithink they are dangerous. Kids use them to walk and slide at the same time - and that could be confusing to a child. I don't know how many accidents those sneakers have already caused."
- Cathy Sciacca, Canarsie |

 | | "It's not that dangerous. I've never seen kids fall on them. And kids fall all the time when they first start riding bikes. And we don't tell them you can't ride your bike. They just have to get up again."
- Ruben Ortiz, Canarsie |

 | | "No, I don't think they are dangerous. I wish I could wear them when I'm at work. They're fun. All work and no play is no good."
- Ab Maldonado, Canarsie |

 | | "My best friend's little sister has it - and skates around all day. It might be a good idea to put on a helmet or wear knee pads. But Idon't think regulation is a good idea."
