Amid our government's ever-intensifying policy of taking over our children comes word from the state of New York that certain kids' games will now be declared illegal.
Yes, you read that right. Kids games. Illegal.
As usual, "public safety" is the term being thrown out to justify the proposed dictatorial legislation.
According to the New York State Health Department, wiffle ball, dodge ball, and kick ball are now activities too dangerous for our children to engage in. And parents -- custodial or otherwise -- have absolutely no discretion in the matter.

NY Child Welfare Workers Arrested in Child Homicide
It is a first for New York: two former child welfare workers arrested for their role in the death of Brooklyn girl last year.
The little girl, four-year-old Marcella Pierce, was starved down to a mere 18 pounds and beaten by her mother, Carlotta Brett-Pierce, while her grandmother (according to prosecutors) looked on.
And so too did the two workers from New York City's Administration for Children's Services, according to DA Charles Hynes. The workers are Damon Adams, who allegedly failed to make nearly all of the mandated biweekly visits to the girl's home and falsified ACS records to show he did; and Chereece Bell, his supervisor, who apparently failed to monitor his work.
More details on this case can be found in this article on the Gothamist.com.
God bless you, Marcella Pierce, and may he protect other children from their so-called protectors.
