We must remember that we are living in different times…kids don’t play like we used to play. Kids now a day are bigger, stronger and more violent. What was once a simple tag is now a big push that causes little Ray Ray to fall and now he wants to fight lilttle Ta’quan because he’s mad and then Ta’quan’s brother wants to bring a gun to school to get back at little Ray Ray. It’s just easier if kids don’t touch each other. We must also remember that due to school budget cuts, there is less supervision on the playground, this adds to the possibility of someone getting hurt.

As a parent who has had to take children to the emergency room when they got hurt at HOME, I think the ban is going too far. Children can be hurt ANYWHERE.
