I agree with you that you should be able to report a broken swing, however I was applauding Grappler about how parents today have turned into wussies.

I remember clear as a bell when i was a kid they used to use STONES under the playground equiptment at Walker and Princeton. I was hanging on the monkey bars and I fell off them and landed head first onto the stones. I clearly remember my Mom picking the stones out of my head with tweezers. She didn't fire up the phones looking to blame someone, she instead fired up my hiney for not being carefull.

I think the nearest playground would be either the one on Walker street, or maybe Tacony, I'm not sure, but it isn't close that's for sure.

Why they haven't built one at Pennypack park yet is beyond me.
