That sucks. I tried to take DS1 ice skating and it was awful. He flipped his shit the instant we walked in the front door because it was too crowded. I knew he'd enjoy it if he stayed and he had really been looking forward to it so I persevered. He yanked on my arm to try to drag me out so hard that I almost fell. He tried to kick me with the skates. We sat for 20 minutes watching before he would go on the ice. Once we got out there he liked it but I realized I was not at all steady on the ice and was likely to trip us both and fracture our skulls. Fortunately he tired quickly. He keeps asking when we can go back. Um, never.
Eta: I guess he didn't really try to kick me, he was just kicking.
This sounds like a typical outing for me! I'm sorry you got hurt, I really hurt my knee falling on the ice the other day b/c I was holding jack & trying to keep him upright. You are right, getting old sucks.
