Nope. Here's what I'm saying:
110 up to age 19 means about 70 preteens. Maybe a little more or less, but close enough for this purpose.
If a family has 4 of those 70 per year, that means it has 5.7% of such deaths.
The US has roughly 50 million preteens.
5.7% of 50 million is 2,850,000. That's how many preteens need to be in his family if his family is representative of the country as a whole.
So, I think his figures are bullshit.
Where did I say anything about my family being representative of anything?
