I bet the long term problems caused by childhood obesity will be much greater than injuries from playgrounds.

I realized how kids had changed when the trails in the woods behind our subdivision, trails made by some generation of kids before my own youth, where we ran and hid and explored and built forts, were all overgrown now.... Guess kids don't play in the woods now either.

Don't worry. The heroic Trial Lawyers are hard at work correcting that problem too.....

You got that right. The problems stemming from childhood obesity could be obviated if all the kids could just walk to their neighborhood school, and ride their bikes around the block.
