damn dude at my school we didnt even have a playground :(

just for reference, when I went to school we landed on the ground, not sand, pea stone, shredded rubber, or beds of pillows and foam.

It teaches you coordination, and gives you a sense of self preservation, cuz the ground is fucking hard and it hurts. There for falling down really hard on it is bad

Exactly... I tell this to my wife about our kids this all the time. "Next time they will think twice".

Wow, just wow.

They should obviously remove all the electrical outlets from the school!!

What is happening is that courts are awarding stupid people money. You should not be able to sue because your child was playing on a swing set and broke an arm.

The other day I was listening to the radio and one commercial was Who Can I Sue? Call 1-800-###-#### I was like WTF!!!! THIS IS BULLSH!T

My dad sued for a swing related incident that led to my leg being broken when I was 9. I wasnt a dumbass jumping off of it, however. I was swinging and the S shaped hook that held the chain to the crossbar bent out straight, dropping me right on to the compacted sand below.

how big are you or where you?

I live in SoCal. I was overweight then, but not by much. The hook and the crossbar were both rusty as fuck.

Greg, you are what's wrong with this country.

But seriously, I had a near death appendicitis, the Dr. sent me home with what he deemed "the stomach flu". Three days later, emergency surgery, and a few weeks in the hospital, and half of 7th grade gone. Also, slipped and fell in a huge puddle in front of the ice maker with no sign in a Del Taco, broke my ankle in three places.

Neither time did I even contact a lawyer. If we didn't all sue, insurance would be cheaper, and people would be more careful.

hey man, i didnt tell my dad to sue.
