Children are a protected class in this country. A crime comitted on a child carries a worse sentence than that same crime on an adult. Not saying hypnosis is a crime, just making a point. Lets say for the sake of your arguement that hypnosis is [b]no more dangerous[/b] than it is for adults. Ok, being a trained hypnotist you know there ARE very real dangers. So why would you subject the little ones to that danger? IF something happens the reaction from the masses will be unbelievable, even [b]with[/b] prior parental concent. It is a risk [b]not[/b] worth taking, forget the moral and ethical implications as they are fluid with each performer it seems. The point really is WHY risk it. People jump to the defence of children. Imagine the news coverage if something simple happened like a sprained ankle. Lots of movement and reactions these things happen. Insureance will [b]not[/b] cover it I promise you, then you are in for it big time. Which brings me to my next point who insures you in the first place that you can do kids shows with the hypnosis. I can't imagine anyone does to tell the truth. Actually I have trouble imagining a place to certify you at the age of 15 and trouble figuring out how you became a hypnotist that early. It makes no logical sense, and see this is some of the problems that I and a few others here have with the post. Again saftey of [b]anyone[/b] hypnotised is [b]the[/b] paramount concern of the hypnotist. [b]Evem above his or her own![/b] Of this there can be no arguement. If your not a trained to deal with children spacifically you have [b]no]/b] business doing hypnosis shows for them spacifically plain and simple. No insureance is unsafe so if you can't find an insurance provider to cover it you shouldn't do it.(and I refuse to believe you can). Sounds like the question is answered. You can keep looking for someone to agree with you, but a trained professional, I doubt it. [/quote] [HTML is Off] [BBcode is On] Options: Disable BBcode on this Post Disable Smilies on this Post
