Current Events > My cousin's kid broke their arm hitting their sibling. Is that...normal?

(+) Yeah! (+)

I grew up as and still am only child (31), so I don't really know if that's the normal type of stuff to expect from kids. Like, I know they'll fight and I know that they break bones doing weird shit. But that seems like a hell of a hit.

My understanding is that the younger one smacked the older one and the older one hit back. Older hit the shin of younger, arm broke. I don't know how badly it's broken, but it seems like you'd have to really hit hard to break your arm, whether a punch or a karate chop.

Not sure the exact ages, but something like 11-13 and 7-9. Both are girls.

Seems possible.
I have seen kids break bones horseplaying.
I chipped my older bros teeth one on accident while mock fighting.

Just the right angle can break things like toes, fingers, and wrists.

Joints can be dislocated easily too if force hits them just right.

Idk about "normal" but it's not unheard of. I still remember in HS my teacher had to leave class because both her sons got suspended for getting in a fight. The funny thing is the fight was about Lemony Snicket's "A Series of Unfortunate Events" and I'm just like what the hell about that series could there have been such a disagreement about that leads to fisticuffs? lmao

But yeah little kids especially boys get into scuffles sometimes and sometimes it goes farther than intended.

Shin vs ulna? I could see it happening.

I reread that shit too

Its completely possible if he didnt punch correctly.

when I trained in boxing you wouldnt imagine how many adults would break bones cause they either didnt wrap their hands right or couldnt throw a punch
