[QUOTE="Andy, post: 428341, member: 5096"] I agree - you are handling this wonderfully. By what you have described, I don't think the choking game is to get high - It does sound more like a daring/dominant sort of game. It could be the first step toward the getting high type of game though if it is not kept in check. Also, it is still just as dangerous. Sounds like the school is responding appropriately to your concerns. Good for you! You have just assured that your son's school will be on the look out for the chocking games regardless of the intent. It is hard for them to spot because kids will not do it in front of adults unless it gets so carried away that they are not paying attention as to who is around. At that point they will truly will be dangerous. It might be helpful to get more info from your son. If he is not willing to talk to the school about what he knows about the choking games, maybe he will let you write down the information to be presented to the school. Get his view point as to when/how/why this may come into play. Also if there seems to be any student that seems obsessed with it the school should have their names. I would present it as you are all along - giving info, letting them know this is just yours and your son's understanding, making no effort on your own to lay blame with anyone. [/QUOTE]
