I visited Independence Square this morning with my grandkids, just after three days of our glorious Independence Day celebration there and was horrified to see this board, put up everywhere in the grounds.

According to my limited knowledge on child phycology, it is universally accepted that mere play enhances the physical and psychological growth of kids.

Are we not in an era where tourism is promoted as a country which reached the top of the list of countries to visit? Also aren’t we opening more outdoor recreational areas daily, for citizens and tourists to enjoy this amazing, miracle on earth with 365 days of sunshine, a fact that many citizens of other countries can’t fathom?

Please explain the reason behind these boards, and tell us what you think a tourist family with kids would think of this, in a country that is on the top of the list to visit on this planet.
