If I ever become a parent, I'm not even sure I'm going to let my kids ride roller coasters.

Millions of people ride coasters each year, you're going to have a lot more dangerous things to worry about when having kids.
Even so, there's still an undeniable fear factor I might need to get over. But it'll need acknowledgement.
Well you shouldn't stop your child from having fun because u get anxiety over something they want to do even tho it's safer than driving which is an activity ull do with them quite often I imagine
Edit: readability
The thing is. Why would I intentionally risk death by other people’s incompetence when it comes to building and maintaining safe rollercoasters?
You could ride 10 roller coasters a day and you’re less likely to die than if you get in a car.
