What should the fulcrum of a seesaw not present?

  1. Crush Hazard

  2. Electrical Hazard

  3. Tripping Hazard

  4. Choking Hazard

The correct answer is: Crush Hazard

When it comes to playground equipment like a seesaw, safety is a top priority. The fulcrum, or the point where the seesaw balances, should not present any hazards. This is because children often run around and play near the seesaw while others are using it, which could lead to accidents if there are any hazards involved. Options B, C, and D are all hazards that could potentially cause harm to children, but these hazards are not specifically related to the fulcrum. Option A, on the other hand, refers to a potential hazard that could be caused by the fulcrum itself, making it the correct answer.
