Game of tag banned in Santa Monica school

I grew up without seat belts or bike helmets. How rapidly our concerns for safety have multiplied since then!

Re: Competition

Elaboration: Tag should not be played in school yards, where parents expect school personnel to supervise. Neighborhood games amoung kids is "private space". Kid will sort this out for themselves. Uncontrolled competative games in school yards, smacks of institutional approval.

Sort of like, tell "dirty..sexist...etc"..jokes to friends (who appreciate it) in private, but don't make it part of the overall work/public enviroment.
