[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think games like this are fun but I also take the danger of 'secrets' very seriously. I tackle this by telling my kids that no matter who tells them anything, there are no secrets between them and mommy and daddy. They can have fun secrets without their siblings or from their grandparents or friends, but they can and should always tell mommy and daddy anything and if anyone wants them to keep something from us they should tell us. I tell my daughter explicitly about how some secrets, like that game, can be fun, but other times people can use secrets to hide bad things and that is never ok. Kids understand more than people give them credit for. [/quote] I think this is basically what most posters are arguing for—that kids lean on their parents to help them learn to discriminate which secrets are good or bad.[/quote]
