$2500 is the low end that does not require surgery [1]. Which I presume is the ER visit itself. With surgery we're back to my original estimate of $15-20k. My claim is not that kids shouldn't play (or that your daughter shouldn't drive a car, thats a bizarre non-sequitur). It's that people are more litigious, and the medical costs are why. > Breaking a bone won't destroy you physically or financially, You knew one kid who got hurt and recovered, ergo medical bills from injured children aren't ruinous to the families (or single parents) that raise them? Thanks, I can sleep easy tonight. 1. https://www.talktomira.com/post/how-much-does-a-broken-bone-cost-without-insurance https://www.talktomira.com/post/how-much-does-a-broken-bone-...
