Back in the day I remember skinning my knees, getting stung by a bee, falling off the monkey bars and not being able to breath.  This was just part of my life...don't get me wrong, I have learned from these mistakes.  Like monkey-bars: Don't touch em.  Hornet's nest's: I steer clear.  So why did the New York Health Department actually take the time and money to write up a report about all the games you and I played as a kid?  Oh right, to tell us that they're dangerous!

LAME!
That's right, officials have decided the age-old street game - along with Wiffle Ball, kickball and dodgeball - poses a "significant risk of injury."
So the report found that life is dangerous!  Would they rather your little one hide inside all day?  This is dumb!  Now, I don't have kids, so maybe I'm wrong?  Am I?
