[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 451666, member: 11791"] Sure. And on the other side of the coin... - we have a wide-open high-tech world that exposes our kids to all sorts of evils that are far worse than the physical things we protect them from... but "there's no way of controlling technology". (well, ok, some systems allow for some limited stuff for controls, but in reality... they only work until you've got a tech-savy kid who can figure out how to get around it) - bullying continues to be an on-going school problem, and it isn't just the kids doing the bullying. (but try and protect the kids from the teachers??) - we are moving body-checking and other high-risk moves down into little-kids hockey - risking severe concussions and/or joint damage with life-long consequences (and some kids will die from brain injuries) but this is allowed in the name of "sports development". Maybe the bureaucrats understand that they cannot control the real dangers, so they go overboard on the stuff they can control so they can say they are doing everything they can? [/QUOTE]
