    Fences are fine. Especially for young kids near the playground and streets.

    Except the fact you need to maintain it (which will be in the form of a replacement every 73 years when enough kids get stabbed by it) and it needs to have enough exit points in case of emergency. It shouldn’t funnel everyone to one spot in the front.

      I could only image the amount of injured children at the elementary school I went to if they went without a fence. Young kids see the nearby gully and decide exploring it sounds like a good idea, up until they injure themselves and there are no adults around to help.
