I noticed that on the Beeb's One-Minute World News that the good folk at Play England are criticising parents for being over-protective toward their children during play. More power to their [Play England, that is] arm, I say! While I wouldn't say that it doesn't happen here in Australia [ where children can stand a much better chance of coming unstuck than in the relatively benign U.K.] it does seem to me to be less prevalent in this country.
