[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That must have been traumatizing to watch. I think playground equipment is designed with little thought to risk these days, especially with the number of kids that might cram onto one structure at crowded area parks and schools. [/quote] This is incorrect.[/quote] Playground equipment is MUCH safer now than when I was a kid. (1970s)[/quote] Haha, totally. I remember this slide that was metal and I swear like 25 feet high at the top. It would burn us in the spring and Summer too.[/quote] There was a toddler who tragically died from falling through the steps on a slide like that in the '70s and the mom led a campaign for safer playground equipment. Sadly while the number of injuries on playground equipment has fallen with the new standards, severe injuries have increased. [/quote]
