Colorado Springs School Bans Tag on Playground, Citing Conflicts
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. —  An elementary school has banned tag on its playground after some children complained they were harassed or chased against their will.

"It causes a lot of conflict on the playground," said Cindy Fesgen, assistant principal of the Discovery Canyon Campus school.

Running games are still allowed as long as students don't chase each other, she said.

Fesgen said two parents complained to her about the ban but most parents and children didn't object.

In 2005, two elementary schools in the nearby Falcon School District did away with tag and similar games in favor of alternatives with less physical contact. School officials said the move encouraged more students to play games and helped reduce playground squabbles.

All this while kids in the 3rd world kick the shit outa each other and can field strip an AK blindfolded.

Let's be honest here, Judi.

Real conservatives would NEVER approve of this.

I live in very liberal Maryland and see signs of the same crap here. Scoreless soccer games, debates about banning dodgeball, etc.

Crap like that does not prepare children for how the world really is.
