If that is likely to trigger their seizures, then definitely not and it is probably not a good idea anyway. Different people have different triggers for their seizures and some people are worse than others in terms of how bad their seizures are and how often they get them. It is not a good idea to wrap a child in cotton wool just because they have an illness, but you do need to apply common sense to situations. A parent knows their child well and the child, once old enough and responsible enough, will know their limitations too, so it really is on a case by case basis as to how you deal with a child who gets seizures or has some other health condition that may affect what they can do.

What are absent seizures?

Absent seizures are mini seizures that usually occur in kids from 7-14ish. They are sometimes mistaken for ADD and unlike regular seizures, they do not usually cause any long term damage. Basically, the child will just have no idea what is going on for 20-30 seconds. Absent seizures are extremely under-diagnosed because, like what was said before, if the child turns out to be negative for ADD, doctors will usually not check for absent seizures and the child will just be known to 'zone out'.
