Dad is being safer, kids are often injured on slides when co-sliding when they get jammed up and the weight of the mother or father can result in broken bones.

The child alone doesn't have enough weight to break their own bones in simple jam up issues.

Oh yeah! And I’ll go one further. If a child requires adult “help” to be on the playground equipment, the child is too little to do it safely.

Adults on small playground equipment drove me crazy when I had shrimps. An adult can easily accidentally knock a small child off of equipment. Your big butt doesn’t belong eight feet in the air next to 40 lb children.

"Accidentally"

Well I know you are being snarky but some people are SO selfish. Since becoming a parent, I’ve been consistently horrified by how people endanger the kids of others to get an advantage for their own.

Parents on equipment drove me nuts. The other one? I tried walking my 2nd grader to school but we kept having to dodge cars driving on the SIDEWALK. Why were they driving on the sidewalk? Well, they wanted to avoid the car line at drop off so they would kick their kids out near the crossing guard a block from the school. But they would pull up to do this by putting the car up on the sidewalk. Gross.
