can't c&p, eyes rolling too hard. Oh no, Twister, not that!!!

[hermione]

Twister and the choking game...obviously on par with each other.

I should have stopped at "the One." Can I tell my kids they can't be friends with fundies?

Yeah, I had to read that part like three times to figure out what the hell she was talking about.

[water*drop]

I didn't know there were multiple versions of spin the bottle.

[hermione]

Does anyone allow their kid to play the choking game?

Also, LMAO that she used an amazon affiliate link to Twister in the very post where she says she won't allow her child to play it.

ETA: AND CINNAMON. In the post where she says it kills people.

Well it's no Twister but definitely something to keep an eye on...

Yes, thank you internet writer for letting me know that I shouldn't let me child choke herself for fun. So glad I know now.

I'd like to retitle this list:

"How I teach my children to not think for themselves and hide all their normal emotions and feelings deep, deep down inside FOREVER."

[bowies]

Is Russian Roulette on the list?

What lame-os are playing a hugging and dancing version of spin the bottle?

Aka "How to Create the Next Josh Duggar".

My mom did break her collarbone playing red rover as a kid, lol.

My mom has broken two different bones in two different games of wiffle ball. Though in both instances, she was an adult.

Omg, how is 3 legged race not in her list? It's like the worst of everything. I mean first there's physical contact with other people who might be opposite sex. Second, you're tying people up which just screams bondage/shades of gray, right??? Third, it's completely dangerous- I shattered my ankle at 3 legged race.

Sadly, that last one is true. I had surgery, 2 pins, 13 screws and a titanium plate reside in my able and leg after the last 3 legged race I ran. And I was an adult.

What about egg toss? Can you just imagine if someone threw it too hard and shell went everywhere? Eye safety hazard!

[redheadk]

You know, it might be best if her kids just sit in a padded room and read books that she has prescreened. Someone else will have to turn the pages though because paper cuts.

Oh hi kids!! I'm Bobby's mom. I'm just here at your high school party to make sure Bobby doesn't play Truth or Dare. Or, you know, that Ouija board. Pretend I'm not here! I will be knitting in the corner.

[redheadk]

She left out Light as a Feather, Stiff as a Board!

Oh man, I listen to MMM internet voices ALL THE TIME!

Did I switch to Free Jinger in my Tapatalk app without realizing?

[dulcemariamar]

I have never heard of most of these games.

[imojoebunny]

I am going to make a list of games I won't allow my kids to play, and show it to them when they get home. I am going to start with spill the beans because those damn things end up everywhere. For the article writer, she left out quarters and flip cup. She should definitely tell her kids not to play quarters or flip cup, no good can come of it, especially at parties where they are serving "punch".

[Deleted]

That is the weirdest damn list ever.

3 dangerous games thrown in with childhood faves? WTH.

H and DD play the don't smile game all the time. I better seriously consider my marriage vows (but then again from a fundie perspective, nothing breaks those vows, right?). Or you know...it also gets her to shut up in the car when we're on hour 8 of talking.

I think I'm going to have my kids play Bible Bingo. First one to find a verse puts a chip on the appropriate slot on the card. Winner gets a hymn sung by me...Otherwise you know..immoral gambling...and all....

I really thought from the title this was going to be a useful blog post about which games are too loud or have too many small pieces and are annoying to clean up. This is much better, though.

Oh yes.  Never purchase the wheels on the bus game.  It is torture for all.

I wonder if the writer's kids really agree with her, or if they're off playing Ouija board and Twister when their mom thinks their at Bible Study.
