This is obviously a contentious issue and I certainly don't know the answer, but I think we can all agree that if you see a clip of your facebook friend sledding with his kid and having a good time, you are an a$$hole if you comment with some goddamn moralizing about safety.
The tyke maybe or maybe not should be wearing a helmet (that's not for me to judge) but please, keep your trap shut. But if you just can't keep your trap shut, send a private message. That way, you aren't questioning your friend's parenting in public, and you won't come across like you are trying to be Mr.Parentoftheyear, or Mrs.Responsibility, which is exactly what you come across as to everyone else who reads it.
