Even if you don't know it, you quit because your son would miss you more. I love risk. I would do all those things, but it would be selfish of us to do so. My children deserve a father. We aren't luxuries to them.

I hate he died, but I wish he had loved his child more than his extreme sports high.

I know what you mean. When my daughter was born, I got off the crash recovery team. It wasn't roadracing motorcycles, but it was roping out of helicopters and working in some very dangerous places/positions.
