These days, good playgrounds are designed by asking local kids what they think would be fun to play on. These architects do not seem to get this. I don't even have little kids anymore and I'm annoyed. Its not about being over protective, its about kids getting first degree burns just from touching these things, and its only April! They f..ked up, and should rip the stuff out ASAP. When I first saw them it immediately hit me that these would be no fun for kids.

Honestly, kids are kids and they whack themselves around a little. It's normal. The people that would complain about this are DUMB. Don't pretend you've never been a kid and climbed on a jungle gym before. Furthermore, park designers don't owe these parents anything. They put these things in for kids to enjoy. If parents want to be oversensitive wimps about their kid getting scraped up every now and again, maybe they should get it over with and move to Florida. I loved those jungle gyms as a kid.

The world is a dangerous placer after all. Perhaps the parents would feel more comfortable if they kept their precious children in hermetically sealed plastic bubbles.
