He almost nailed the landing. I give him an 8 for effort

Yeah - he ALMOST stuck that landing - not.

We should adopt the scoring rules used in the Olympics and throw out the highest and lowest scores from the judges.

The little girl deserves a 10 for execution, but that score needs to be weighted by a low degree of difficulty.

The little boy deserves a low score for execution, but that scores needs to be weighted by a high degree of difficulty.

I call it a tie.

I would have to take that under advisement. It appears that there is an inverse relationship between the level of skill exhibited in the execution and the degree of difficulty.

Let's review the official scoring guidelines for Olympic sliding.

The Child's Play Dismount: The slider descends on his/her tookus (feet first) while slowing his/her descent by grasping the slide rails with his/her hands. The slider comes to a complete stop and then dismounts by standing. Degree of difficulty = 0.1.

The Evel Knievel Dismount: The slider descends at full speed while in a prone position (head first). The slider dismounts by flipping in midair and landing on his/her feet. Degree of difficulty = 1.0.

That is also why they are smarter than us.... less blows to the head as a child.

Clearly the girl, like women stop at the bottom of an elevator to adjust whatever, with no consideration of who is following has displayed an act of selfishness, on the other hand the boy has put himself at considerable risk avoiding hurting said girl by barreling into the ground rather than performing a complex somersault at the end.
Penalties need to be imposed here.
