Common cause of serious injury for children remains playground equipment
Suggests a recent article in the New York Times published, that playground safety playgrounds have made improve playground equipment "safe." has large, to prevent serious injuries such as strangulation, head trauma and fractures as a result of the cases changed.
These changes were more stringent Federal Republic of a response to concerns from parents, safety standards, changes in the industrial design by manufacturers and accidents, where children serious injury and suffered even to death.
Some of these security improvements that have prevented injuries on Georgia reasons of school playgrounds in parks, and in backyards, involving playground equipment, not as high as also softer surfaces under playground equipment including wood chips, or rubber material. Personal injury lawsuits have paved the way to make safer play areas.
Article the New York Times that some psychology experts believe that improving security gone too far. The article suggests that mental health professionals are concerned that safe playground equipment affecting emotional growth can, promote fear and anxiety. The author of the article suggests that these potential effects of emotional injuries playground falls and strangulation accidents can trump.
The author quoted Ellen Sandseter, Professor of Psychology at Queen Maud University in Norway, "Children must at risk and overcome fears on the playground." I think, climbing frame and high slides are great. "More and more will be boring like playgrounds, are some a few features, still give the children can exciting experiences height and high speed."
The article suggests that actions instead of security are the reason for the changes to playground equipment. Articles like these are frustrating, because they do not recognize risks for children to serious injuries and discard the importance of the product liability law and personal injury to protect legal disputes in the public. The idea that children are better off under dangerous risks on playground equipment, which may lead to catastrophic head injuries and broken bones is seriously wrong.
Article which offers New York Times is interesting to note that the fact that the severity of injury of playground equipment are somehow exaggerated no Scintilla. Every year 200,000 children are badly injured playground equipment according to the CPSC. These are scratches and bruises not insignificant, as article the New York Times seems dismissive to propose.

About 45% the playground are injuries as heavy equipment containing classified the fractures, internal injuries, concussions, sprains, and amputations.
