Because kids hide in bushes around homes and then jump out with toy guns. If don’t tell parents about game, kids end up in headlines and saddest headlines are those in states with stand your ground laws. Kids need to tell parents that’s how parents know.

I hate this game.
I hate that my kid decided to participate.
I hate that some kids know where I live and were camped out at the edge of my yard (and came up to my garage before I asked them to leave my property) waiting for my kid to come out to go to school.
I hate guns and gun culture.
I hate that in my UMC neighborhood maybe no one would blink an eye with kids running around with plastic guns but in other neighborhoods kids are getting shot for real.
I wish I could listen to those who will invariably repsond here telling me to lighten up. But I can't. The world is heavy right now and this game of assasin isn't helping.
I hate the hate I am feeling.

Water balloons? Tag (like the movie based on the real life game of tag friends played for decades)? Keeping it at school (evidentely, you cannot play at school at all)? Keeping it to the daytime?
Is there something that could change to make this work?


The only thing that could possibly change to "make this work" is if you start taking sedatives and seek therapy. Good grief.

Yes, good old fashioned fun where we mock assassinate people and shoot guns. Yeehaw, USA, USA.


When I lived in the Middle East, they had Pirate Day at school and all the kids would be running through the school waving cutlasses. They had so much fun!

Yorktown High School changed the name to Senior Spies, and instituted the sock thing instead of guns.

You don't talk to your kids? Or ask why they are wearing a pool floatie and carrying a water gun to a family dinner? I don't care about the game but I certainly know about it.

Yes. And maybe water balloons instead of guns. Or Tag like the movie.


Your kind will always find something to whine about.
