Bubble-wrapped kids

Regarding the letter, “Stop contact sports, protect kids’ brains,” (May 4), I have long been an advocate of turning children over to the state at birth and enclosing them in bubble wrap and Styrofoam until age 75. Eliminating all sports, particularly those that might even possibly result in any slight physical contact is a step in the right direction.
