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.
I personally never found tag or dodgeball or any other "strenuous" activity any fun, but I would hope that adults would be wise enough to allow their children to play so-called chase games without thinking about a future law suit. The thing is, allowing all these frivolous suits to affect all aspects in which we live only results in a society that has no sense of personal responsibility. Your kid plays ball and falls? Instead of brushing him off you see dollar signs and sue the school? That's bullshix. You order and buy a cup of hot coffee, burn your tongue then sue the provider because the coffee was actually hot. You put a paper plate in the toaster oven, your house blows up, you sue Oster for not warning you in advance. You're just a friggin' idiot! There's a little theory out there called Survival Of The Fittest. Those who do not have common sense and become severly injured due to their lack of brain power barely deserve to live, much less
make money off of it!!!

If it wasn't for dodgeball, I wouldn't be who I am today!
