Why We Banned Legos

Why We Banned Legos - Volume 21 No. 2 - Winter 2006 - Rethinking Schools Online - [Stumbles via StumbleUpon]

This is a very interesting article about why a sort of day care center decided to ban Legos as a child's toy. It makes me wonder if the kind of problems that these kids encountered are built into us or if it is something we learn.

I couldn't agree more. I fall more in line with the theory that if a kid does something, and it hurts, he/she is less likely to do it again in the future.
