It is very shocking to talk to adults living in townhouses and belonging
to
home owner associations,  who do not have children, that express such
very
very little concern about what the lawn care chemicals and what their
effects may be on the children who live and play there.  We have a
Children
and Youth Services who state that you cannot spank your child, which is
good.  Nevertheless, adults allow these chemicals to be dumped on their
lawns and then let children (theirs & others) play there.  Spring is
just
around the corner and if nothing changes nothing changes.  It HURTS to
see
these little children victimized by the adults concern for only the mere
immediate aesthetics of their lawn.  Please, consider treating children
the
way most people treat their pets.  KEEP THEM OFF THE SYNTHETIC CHEMICALS
THIS YEAR!

Yours Truly
