I agree.... Tons of stuff I did for fun as a kid would land parents in jail today.
When I was a kid, we rode dirt bikes with no helmets on neighbor's properties... If we hurt ourselves, it was our fault, not the property owner's. If we slipped on an icy sidewalk, it was our fault not the property owner's fault. If we burned our mouths by chugging a big gulp of hot cocoa from a store, it was our fault. If we ran into a tree while skiing, it was our fault not the ski resorts.
I truly hate what society has become..... The wussification of America via ever increasing govt regulation and litigation.
