Peer comments on this reference comment (and responses from the reference poster)
disagree  BrigitteHilgner: No, this is nonsense. "Kinderanstalt" is the wrong term in this context, as is "unversehrt", and the grammar is wrong (eine Kinderanstalt wird weitergeführt). (Since I am correcting language-misuse: It should be "Schach spielen" not "spielenschach".)
