[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My husband is an Orthopaedic surgeon and says that all the time.  [/quote]

Well, sure. The orthopedic surgeon sees the kids who break bones. He don't see the vast majority of kids who play on trampolines and monkey bars who don't break bones. Observer bias. I'll admit that kids who sit quietly under the tree smelling flowers are not seen by the surgeon, either.[/quote]

F you.  He sees kids that break all kinds of bones from all kinds of injuries.  A large portion of these injuries are from monkey bars...more so than any other playground equipment.  But way to be an ass.  [/quote]

Do you allow your children to ride bikes or skate.  What activities are your child allowed to participate.  You know you can break your arm falling out of a bunk bed.  My friend's two-half year old sprained a wrist falling off the hotel bed.  [/quote]

I actually never said they should be outlawed, or that I don't ket my kids use them.  Just agreeing that they are in fact a big cause of injuries.  Keep at em kids, it's good for my children's college accounts.  [/quote]
