I'm Not Sure What to Think About This

A ritual in India involving dropping kids off a tower. Looks like the kids don't mind -- kinda like a long drop onto a trampoline. I suppose every religion has its odd rituals. As a parent, not sure how I feel.

It is interesting to note, however, that the crowd seems to made up entirely of men. I guess the dads are OK with it. Wonder what the moms think

Oh, they appear to be exceedingly serious about it.

Not altogether unlike dunking a kid in a pool of water, although admittedly more dangerous.

Probably less painful and dangerous than circumsision though (a ritual that we chose not to participate in with James)
