Banning Tag! Overprotecting Our Kids?
Monday 28th of May 2012 07:39:47 AM

| Only in America in 2006 would a game of tag be considered dangerous. In the name of safety, a number of schools are prohibiting their students at recess from playing traditional games like tag or soccer, claiming that too many children were getting hurt by aggressive play. The New Jersey School Boards Association doesn't keep statistics on school recess games. Anecdotally, the trend exists. Dodge ball has been out at some schools for years, but banning games such as tag and soccer is a newer development. And some experts say such bans are bad for children. "We're really overprotecting our... |

| Recently a school in Spokane, Washington, banned students from playing tag out on their playground. The principal claims that students were getting hurt--gasp--and being coerced to play. Her idea of coercion is one student running up to another, tagging him and saying, "You're it." Apparently, pure genius takes a lot longer to reach the Pacific Northwest. Here in New Jersey, some schools have already banned tag, agreeing with the National Association of School Psychologists who say, "There's a potential for some victimization." Victimization? Are you kidding me? These people haven't a clue about victimization. I'll tell you about victimization. I... |
