The original jungle gym at my elementary school was a death trap. They tore it down and built a new one because too many kids were getting hurt.

I bet a woman made that decision.

It's still like that or worse in 80% of the world.

You have someone holding a 6 month old baby in their arms while riding a moped in the worst traffic, A 2 year old standing in front right behind the handles and an older kid sitting on the seat behind. Of course no one has a helmet lol.

We lived on hose water.
Didn't have to be at your house either, any hose in the neighborhood was fair game and I don't recall getting yelled at once for it.
It didn't make you sick, either. I dined on tap water in county. It was not a pleasant night. Dehydration is a helluva detterent.

I used to crawl under one that barely had room and then have all the kids spin it as fast as they could.

I thought I was "training" to be a stuntman.
If you were tiny like me you could hang off the side and fly in circles. Fucking blast but you had to learn to fall or regain your footing back on those fuckers, of course. Plus, they were pure GD IRON.

These mexiCANs when they were still CANs were crafty as hell. They started surrounding ours with pebbles, lol. So, it was worse than digging through sand with your heels(slower/harder to push) and twice as much pain.

Ours was the last feral generation.
