Can whiplash eventually cause death? i have a two year old son and of course we wrestle quite a lot, but he always gives me whiplash.

Yes: Chronic progressive cervical trauma can lead to debilitating deficits. Should try to enjoy each other without injury.

I'd worry more about: Your 2-year-old's having a brain bleed or other brain/ body trauma & the fact that he's learning that physical aggression is okay. Even touching peers at day-care/preschool/school will get him expelled these days. If he gives you "whiplash, " think how badly he can hurt a same-sized or smaller peer, whose parents can sue you for damages.. Please wait till he can have lessons, between 6-10 years.
