Don't mess with my playground
Visiting your neighborhood park with your children should not be a lesson in profanity.
I still remember when I took my son to one of our favorite haunts in Davie, and he came across some graffiti on the side of the playground.
“What does that say, Mommy?” my three-year-old asked.
I diverted his attention elsewhere and seethed at the thought of delinquents destroying the recently refurbished playground. I should have reported it to the city.
That’s what some parents in Coral Springs are doing as they patrol their area parks. Called Park Moms, they check to see if the garbage is picked up, equipment is functioning properly and the playground is graffiti-free. (You can read about them in today’s Sun-Sentinel.)
If only there was a Park Moms in every city. Now there’s an idea…
