Just when I thought I had seen it all......this tops it...
The pussification of America continues........
School bans tag, other chase games ATTLEBORO, Massachusetts (AP) -- Tag, you're out! Officials at an elementary school south of Boston have banned kids from playing tag, touch football and any other unsupervised chase game during recess for fear they'll get hurt and hold the school liable. Recess is "a time when accidents can happen," said Willett Elementary School Principal Gaylene Heppe, who approved the ban. While there is no districtwide ban on contact sports during recess, local rules have been cropping up. Several school administrators around Attleboro, a city of about 45,000 residents, took aim at dodgeball a few years ago, saying it was exclusionary and dangerous. Elementary schools in Cheyenne, Wyoming, and Spokane, Washington, also recently banned tag during recess. A suburban Charleston, South Carolina, school outlawed all unsupervised contact sports. "I think that it's unfortunate that kids' lives are micromanaged and there are social skills they'll never develop on their own," said Debbie Laferriere, who has two children at Willett, about 40 miles south of Boston. "Playing tag is just part of being a kid." Another Willett parent, Celeste D'Elia, said her son feels safer because of the rule. "I've witnessed enough near collisions," she said. http://www.cnn.com/2006/US/10/18/no.tag.ap/index.html |

Madam, you are turning your son into a pussy. You'd better hope he never has to compete against my kids in the real world as an adult because they will eat him alive. |

Celeste D'Elia...does your son happen to take ballet lessons and play with Barbies? 'Cause if he doesn't already, he will be soon.

Yep. I went to Elementary School in Texas. I know what you mean. Burning an ant colony was considered good citizenship. My weapon of choice at school was a magnifying glass (no flames) and lighter fluid at home. |

It hasn't been mentioned but how do they feel about "Smear the Queer"? I'll bet GoChiefs hated that game.
