I saw this pic of an old playground and it's pretty damn alarming: http://dallaslibrary2.org/dallashistory/photogallery/images/parks/pa87-1-19-59-210-10.jpg http://dallaslibrary2.org/dallashistory/photogallery/images/... Though, I spent my youth playing unsupervised in the Appalachian woods, climbing trees, getting stung by numerous types of bugs, falling out of trees, stepping over snakes, touching poison ivy, swimming in rivers, getting splinters, accidently cutting myself with knives, machetes, axes, & hatchets and I had practically no "bad" injuries (no broken bones or hospital trips)... a few close calls though.
