Playground equipment in 1900: the best way to control post-birth rate

Recently, a series of photos about children playground in 1900 become hot point. If you see such playground equipment nowadays, every one will refuse it, why?

(This is a photo of kids playing on a school playground in 1900, found in the Dallas Public Library archives.)

The ladders and poles being so far off the ground and playground swings start four feet in the air. Those kids sitting on top of the bars without security protect measures and there is no ladder around him. God, that is like a two story falls.
Can you image how did they even get into those swings? What is most mysterious, it seems that children having fun just like the photos.
The following are some comments on the blog, forum and reddit about these photos.

"It was the Lords will."
It really was the best way to reduce the number of sheep eaten by wolves.
Eeeereeevery sperm is saaaaaaacred!
I believe this playground's actual name was "The Post-Birth Control"
I thought we called it* "Gravity"*
I have to appreciate that almost every child in this photo is wearing a hat. Even when playing they rocked the full brim.

We have to say thanks to state laws, personal injury lawyers and playground equipment certificate, such as ISO9001: 2000, NSCC, TUV international certification and the European standard EN. So playground equipment has changed a lot over the years, making it safer.
With the development of the society and technology, the styles and quantities of playground equipment are more and more. Playground equipment design is more scientific. Manufacturers pay more attention to the details in the processing of designing of outdoor playground equipment, and it not only entertains children as well as been educational.
