I’ve never taken my kids to a play area quite as, ahem, fun as this, but I do like to take my kids to the playground every now and then. It seems like the same types of kids are always there- you know them. There’s the shy kid who cowers in the corner and won’t play with anyone. There’s the bully kids who try to beat everyone up before anyone’s mom sees and comes over and throws a fit.

Then there’s those daredevil kids, the ones who are on top of the play equipment acting like monkeys. That would be my kids. I’m lucky, I haven’t had to deal with too many cuts, scrapes, broken bones and other injuries, but I’ve had to deal with a few. It’s funny, when my oldest son was a kid on the playground, I’d look at the daredevil kids and think, “What bad examples.” Now I’m the parent of them.

Tell me, Shak-ers, what sort of kids are your kids on the playground?
