Why don't they just ban the children, problem solved. And these are the idiots guiding children through school.
Like usual, no? People these days are too worried about lawsuits. And parents are too worried about injuries. A kid needs to get hurt a bit to learn to deal with pain. Just make sure that when they do, it's not too serious and they get taken care of properly. Children should have a stated right to danger.
I agree it seems like they just dont want to address the real issue and took the easiest path.
That happens because they're pussies.
What's next? No more playing tag because someone could trip and fall while running?
Shit, if you really want to avoid ANY possible injury then recess would come down to sitting still with your hands folded in your lap.
In a time when more children are obese than ever ANY type of physical play should be encouraged not taken away.
People almost get hit by cars everyday, should be ban cars? I mean the stupid examples could go on and on. You are in a playground and get hit by a ball? Who the heck could have foreseen that possibility?
Principle needs a few shots to the head with a ball, a medicine ball!
get fucking real people or you're going to be raising a generation of overweight couch potatoes.
Already happening.
Stupid shit like this will only make it worse.

This is what happens when all the fun stuff outside is banned and only video games remain.

That one has happened already. They also said something about it promoting exclusion.
An elementary school in Colorado banned tag on its playground after some children complained they were being chased against their will.
Traditional schoolyard games like red rover and leapfrog have been banned at schools across North America and the U.K. by school staff concerned about arm and head injuries.
An elementary school in Australia banned unsupervised cartwheels, handstands and somersaults.
To discourage sexual behaviour, several schools in the U.K. have banned hugging and linking arms. One school banned all touching except to help a classmate who has fallen.
Bring on the nanny state.
