SEESAW (Noun) A long plank balanced in the middle on a fixed support, on each end of which children sit and swing up and down by pushing the ground alternately with their feet. (Verb) A situation characterized by rapid, repeated changes from one state or condition to another.

I think I rather feel the earth on my feet than be bounced up and down by a seesaw.
