COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. -- An elementary school in Colorado Springs, Colo., is banning the game of tag on its playground, after some children complained they had been chased or harassed against their will.
Assistant Principal Cindy Fesgen of the Discovery Canyon Campus school said running games will be allowed, as long as students don't chase each other.
I guess this takes out most sports or games as you usually chase after the person with the ball. No soccer, basketball, football, frisbee and so on.
What is the school doing to these kids? Now they can't run so of course they will get even fatter right? Aren't they trying to promote a healthier lifestyle? What running game is left? Track? I can't remember finding a track race all that appealing in grade school, unless you wanted to proove who was faster... but there is two problems with track... someone would win and the other kids feelings would be hurt and you are actually chasing after the faster kid...
