Nanny State ~*~ Ban it all!! ~*~

I was listening to the news and I am wondering if the whole world has gone bonkers, or is it only New Jersey ? A local municipality is banning snow sledding, on both private and public property, stating it is too dangerous, and there is a monetary fine schedule for each violation also!!! This joins a long list of things that our “Nanny State” seems to think is important to forbid out of concern for safety under threat of law. When I grew up and when my were young, I seem to remember that parents were responsible for their , the conduct and of course safety. When I was a , we ran around like banshees during recess at school. I got a few bloody noses, but I seemed to have lived through it. I resent this Government intrusion and I make my disdain for the local politicians know at meetings, on voting day and whenever I see them in public. Do you have the same or similar in your area? Below are more examples of banned school activities here.

Criminal Sledding


Wildly dangerous playground equipment


Dodge Ball


Playing tag in school yard


Flag football


Pick up basketball games at recess


Whiffle ball


Hugging or kissing. There are several under the age of 10 in this state that are registered as sex offenders for innocent kisses in class!




Boys wrestling on playground

It is getting crazy. I think some parents just don't want the responsibilities of parenting

Nothing like that in my area .... yet. We also rode our bikes all over hell and back with out helmets and knee/elbow pads. If we fell off and skinned our knees ... mommy put a Band-Aid on it and we went back out. That's not to say those things are a bad idea. We just never thought about it.

I think you are right. This garbage about,,, "It takes a village" to raise children is garbage. It takes parents to raise kids

    Quoting AmeliaCox:
    That criminal sledding looks like wildly good fun, so do some of those other activities. In our 'Nanny State' (Country actually), we have some similar ridiculousnesses... Plain packaging on cigarette packs, we have to refer to Fairy penguins as "Little penguins" because someone thought gay people would be offended by the name. They were called Fairy penguins for over 150 years. The world has gone f*cking mad!
Sledding is so much fun. As kids we would be out for hours at a time, careening down a hill, occasionally colliding with each other and obstacles. I think people are forgetting, this is not a perfect world and the occasional upset or bump and bruise is normal

The same here, take off in the morning and come back at night with our bumps and bruises. I agree some caution is needed, I just resent the Government taking over the parental role

Yes, did all those HORRIBLE things, probably worse........sliding on ice across playground or snow! Lord forbid they jump from a second story ledge into a hay stack in the barn!!!!!
We also got swats at school, too! From a huge paddle! Didn't seem to ruin us! And, you most certainly DON'T see that in schools these days! Would call the police for child abuse n parents would sue!

I think governments are retreating from the big problems like managing the global economy and maintaining global security, and focusing on the little problems because they can!

Pal, it does seem they are fining people for the silliest of things lately. If they are going to make such laws and enforce them, I think they should legally make designated areas for the kids to enjoy themselves then..Things are so different today than when we were kids we could go any where and do anything it seemed..I think they are over reacting on many things these days..Have a wonderful day..

Seduce the mind and see what a wonderful adventure the body will take you on..

You hit it fair and square there. The sheeple are allowing our personal liberties to erode. People are grasping at that crappy philosophy,,,,,,,,,," It takes a village to raise a child". Forgive my language, but that is bullshit. It takes a parent (s) to raise a child.

Wow, that is crazy... might as well ban being a kid then.

I hope there are no Olympic luge or skeleton facilities in NJ, because the just got put out of business then, since they are technically another form of snow sledding... just faster.
