Children-tossing

How strange to have a sign like that.

"Tossing" would not be a good idea, "dropping" if the gate is not too high... why not?

That's a hilarious picture! But yes there have been times when I have considered whether I could lift one of mine over the fence. The caretaker used to take a malicious pleasure in locking the gate when he saw us rushing towards it - sometimes even a minute or two early - and then we would have to walk an extra couple of hundred metres round to the office, which of course made us even later, and then she would have to walk all the way back across the playing field to her class. making her later still. He just did it on purpose.

There were times when I would have willingly tossed my children over the school fence!!

What kind of parents would do this to their children?

it is so important that they can toss children over the gate

The children could get hurt.

There were no gates closed doors yes. Every time I had to take my eldest to the school and I was a bit late just a few minutes I had the teacher glaring at me with her cairngorm goats beady eye eyeing me up and down. She asks me if I think that this is Buckingham Palace? I did not answer her for I was long suffering and I did not want to lose my job or the chance to have my eldest at School. What she did not know was the hour Monday to Friday at half past five I was up in the coldest of winter weather to first of all make coffee and clean up the kitchen in the Hotel where we worked Then at eight and something in the morning I had to run from the Hotel back to where we lived and then try and get Mr. sleepy head number one up no mean feat I can tell you and then go straight back to the Hotel to clean 21 rooms top to bottom and the bathrooms which makes 42 rooms. So I did not need closed gates to toss my kid over there Mrs. Cairngorm goats eye was always watching and waiting like a vulture. Que tengas un buen día tops.

I guess there is no one on the other side to child-catch . I would actually be quite impressed if a parent could toss their child over one of our tall school fences. And even more impressed if a child can stick the landing . . . many kids don't seem as agile as we were in our time . But here's a thought. Get kids to school on time. What a concept !

Hmmm... if the bars were not too close together, maybe shove the child through... after all, the parent needs some time away from the child, right? Why would a gate at a school be locked if school is in session? You KNOW someone threw their kid over the fence or that sign wouldn't have been posted!

Hmmmm. I don't think tossing children is a good idea. :-)

i think that would look weird here haha

People do something like that? Wow I can't believe it.

I find it funny to be honest but at the same time it's dangerous. I hope the gate is just a short one.

The parent may or may not have reasons to be late. But the price should not be paid by the child. The school gotta penalize the parent for bringing in child late. The gate will open on payment of a minor penalty. This will ensure that parents do not get late and also have valid excuse whenever they are. Tossing child is risky for the child.

It really takes the biscuit ! I sympathize those children very much ,especially after seaching the dwarf-tossing .

That's a bad thing to do.

i'm thinkin' that folks've jest lost their last lids.

I love these bizarre signs and saw quite a few. " Do not get your leg over the wall" was one example. I guess if you have been locked up with your kids at home for a while it is one way of getting them off your hands for a bit!

That's crazy. Has someone done that for that sign to be on there?
