Would you be okay if first grade teachers remained inside their classrooms while their students play in the playground area unsupervised?[/quote]

The first-grade teachers actually do remain inside their classrooms (or eat lunch, or have meetings), in my children's school system.[/quote]

while the kids play outside? I've worked 25+ years in several public schools and one private, and that practice has never been allowed in any of them.[/quote]

Yes. The teachers don't supervise recess. Other people do.

In any case, I don't think that school is a good analogy. For example, at home, my children don't need a bathroom pass to go to the bathroom, and there is no blue line in the hallway that they have to walk on. [/quote]

It's a very good analogy in that children that age need adult supervision--in my opinion and that of many others.  An adult is present in case of an accident, a stranger entering the playground area, etc.  [/quote]
