Looks just as plausible to be in the US.

Those things are at apartments in the US...

And risk being sued for medical expenses?

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Yes? There's an apartment building I drive by all the time that has a playground.

With a thing on a spring that is an injury lawyer's wet dream? Also that thing is not cordoned off, it's for general use, even though privately constructed.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

You know those spring things are in public park playgrounds, right? My daughter played on them when she was younger all the time.

All I can say is American expats are regularly gob-struck by how "unsafe" our playgrounds are. Where "unsafe" means fun and a place where kids can learn to judge risks and develop independence.

Are you even allowed to let a kid play there while you're inside or is the CPS going to drag you to court for it?

[-] Confused_Emus@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

There's nothing in that playground you couldn't find in a typical American playground. The Americans you know apparently just have the personalities of wet towels.

America has a lot of problems but the idea that Americans can afford to be frivolously litigious is hilarious.

[-] Khotetsu@lib.lgbt 1 points 1 year ago

Nah, if it were the US, that playground would be a parking lot.
