Are they really bad for ankles? Waste of money?

Don't know what the current thinking is but my two absolutely loved theirs, and glided all over the place, until they grew out of them. But DD's friend broke her wrist on hers.

My dad (who normally doesn't have an opinion on these things) thinks they are dodgy, but I don't see how they could be worse than skateboards or skates. Some children will get hurt and some won't.

I hate them. Especially when I see them being used in shops. crowded shops with the operatprs of said footwear thinking they own the shop floor and sod the rest of the population.
