I do not live in NY and my kids are grown now but I liked your article on the missing see saws. I grew up with them too and the merry go round. I loved them. There were safety issues for sure but even as kids we learned how to have fun and minimize the risks. I would not ride on either of them with older kids that I did not know and learned how to best ride them for better fun and safety. With the see saws, I learned the value of the handle bars and that it is not safe to trying to ride them while standing on the seat.

Your article is helping me with my company, Habeco, LLC as we have the Bouncing Teeter Totter which is safer than a traditional teeter totter or see saw. It is a single seat teeter totter so the child is pretty well in control of their own safety. They are not dependent upon another child for their safety or riding pleasure.

Thanks again for the article.
