Everyday I continue to question some of the choices people make in this world. YES!!!! I understand that everyone has a choice, but I just read that a school district in I think it was Massachusetts is banning games like tag and flag football for fear of the kids attending that school getting hurt and their parents suing the school.
Are we going to have all our children going to school in the next five years in bubbles? I just don’t get it anymore. People are using personal injury as their personal ATM. I thought schools carried insurance for kids that get hurt. Kids are going to get hurt, it is a known fact. Now if it is neglect then that is one thing, but if it is just a bunch of kids running around having fun, that’s another.
Now if a school allows a child to play on playground equipment they know is unsafe, that is neglect, but if a kid falls off a piece of playground equipment that is properly maintained, then that is an accident and no court in the world should hear the case. But yet we have these ambulance chasers that encourage people to sue, and they do and that is what is causing our insurance rates to skyrocket.
No wonder my workplace can no longer afford to pay health costs, it is people like Johnny’s mom and dad that are suing the school system because Johnny fell down and scraped his knee or heaven forbid broke his arm. I’M SURE IT WAS AN ACCIDENT.
Come on people stand up against this crap and start holding the correct people accountable. We are starting to live in a bubble and it’s just not healthy.
