For the amount of money spent of them, that should not happen.

The burns are pretty bad! I can't believe she went down it more than once!

West-Tex: I can't believe teachers don't check and ensure the slides aren't too hot!
It was only a matter of time before a child got hurt in some form or fashion. Because children have always injured themselves on playgrounds. As it is these days, there's a high probability of a lawsuit. Along with the possibility of removing the playgrounds altogether. Or limiting access to them as they become a greater liability.

How sad, but this was a rare situation that would not have happened to most kids: "She has spina bifida, so for her lower extremities, she doesn't feel what we would feel, so for her, it might be like a little burn, not nothing that we would feel if that was on us," Moncada said.

Remember them metal slides with the surface so hot you could fry an egg?

Let me guess....Lawsuit coming, playground to be torn down soon afterward?.... Then there will only be "virtual slide" on the internet, perhaps an app you can "subscribe" to for your kids and pay MONTHLY?..... As kids, me and my generation played on mostly metal playground equipment usually in full sun during certain parts of the day.....We knew when the slides were "too hot" and used very "high tech" methods to cool them off back then like WATER....Or, we slide down on a towel or other "smart" item..... Bumps, Bruises, Cuts, Abrasions, Blisters, Burns, etc......NEVER made the news from us....Those were BATTLE SCARS and worn proudly!....Even used to "keep score" for playground bragging rights......We'd lick those wounds and come back for more the next day!..... GOOD TIMES!.... No "powder-puff" kids back then......
