Kids today are soft as shyt. They twist their ankles getting out of cars and have to go to urgent care.

I was fortunate enough to climb the rope when I was in elementary and middle school. They got rid of them by the time I was in high school.

A local elementary school is getting rid of Monkey bars. fukking monkey bars. But all the kids have iPads with roblox.

My mom sent us to camp every year, and at one camp, there were at least 7 kids with broken arms or legs, 2 from falling off the monkey bars. Our dumbasses thought they were cool, because people were signing the casts.

shyt after I graduated kids weren't breaking their arms and legs on bicycles and monkey bars and from sports, the only scars they had was from cutting themselves and burning themselves with lighters.

That might be photo shop

That's got to be shopped because on the far left side there looks like a cac kid free falling on his back :mjlol:

It's real. It's one of the few times I've ever seen something on Snopes with the True rating.

FACT CHECK: Is This a Photograph of a Playground from 1900?

I still have a noticeable scar on my back from falling off a swing made out of a discarded mattress. They took the chains from the swings and attached them to the corners of the mattress. There were about 8 to 10 kids on it and I happened to be the one that fell off. When the mattress came back, I had three perpendicular cuts from my shoulder to the small of my back. I must have been four or five years old when that happened.
