Playground
Why do they just come here for drop-offs and kid exchanges? This is a place for fun, for laughter, not for bitch sessions.
Gawd! If all they want to do is hurt each other, they can do that in a freakin’ parking lot. Hell, drive vans and only slow down long enough to toss the ankle-biters through the open sliding doors. What’s a little road rash to a kid?
This is a playground dammit, not a war zone! Grow up and get your lives straight before you completely warp your kids.
Do not make me scrape your knees!
What a creative voice! A few others have done animals, but I think this is the only inanimate object (if you can call a playground an object) that I’ve read. I love how the playground voice has such strong emotions and opinions!

Fantastic! Love the idea of the voice of the playground, and how mad it is at being used this way. Great way to round off a week of fascinating writing.

I never thought what the playground had to say about our daily matters. I found this quite funny, but also introspective. What a cool idea!
Thanks for sharing all the voices this week, it was a pleasure!

Haha! I didn’t realise until the final line that I was hearing the Playground’s voice, then had to read it again to truly appreciate it. A very unique and unexpected end to the week.
Thanks for sharing!

Who knew Playgrounds were so damn opinionated?? I’ll be watching my step the next time I go to one 😉

Never thought a playground would be so aggressive and bitter! But can you blame it? It only wants to be properly used for FUN.
Love this. Great ending to the week.

Thanks! I thought at least one voice should be the grown up.
