That's why the nurse was saying the federal law exists, to tell you: any kid could have it.

Why do we need a federal law for this? Are we now passing federal laws to regulate the game of Tag?

Seriously, when the law is federalized, it is not saying that any kid in the game could have it, it is saying that any kid anywhere can have it, all over a small group of kids playing on a schoolyard. That's what federalizing does -- it makes it apply equally to everyone anywhere in the country.

If government has to get involved (and that's a BIG if), then it should be the states that get involved, just in case some states don't see a problem in their schoolyards and don't want to be coerced into more regulations that take a sledghammer approach to swatting flies.

BTW, I just did a search on google for this entry:

"HIV" AND "Contact sports" AND "Students"

Result: A total of 439 articles/entires came up.

Apparently, the school district where I teach is not the only place talking about this topic.
