Now even the Field players will have to wear protective helmets. Its for the children's safety don't you know.

How the heck did we Sexagenarians manage to grow up without a Nanny State?

As a slo-pitch softball pitcher I am already wearing protective equipment for my head. The bats are just too advanced and juiced these days. It’s simply a common sense precaution.

That being said, I believe the family is out of line here but such is the way of things today. Sue for anything!

I was talking to my grandmother (who lived to age 96) about her early days, migrating to Indian Territory in a covered wagon, raising a family of six on a farm with no modern conveniences, and such like.

I asked "GrandMama, how were you able to raise a big family in conditions like that?"

She replied "I don't know, but it sure a sturdy old woman out of me."

I don't know, but now that its here, they'll make sure it doesn't happen again.

I’d like to know how you allowed the nanny state to be created.

Don’t worry. It is collapsing of its own weight as I type this.
