You know that space saving concepts have gone too far when someone proposes that a collapsible swing be integrated into a parking space.

“Yeah Billy, go play in the busy street. Daddy’s gonna sit here and watch with his beer. But hey, listen, I might fall asleep so whatever you do, don’t talk to strangers…unless they have candy.”

Seriously, what the hell happened to parenting? The most humorous thing is that rubber padding is installed under the swing for safety—like that’s going to somehow stop a Buick from slamming into your kid. Thankfully, this is only a concept. [Maandag via The Design Blog]
