[QUOTE="Mamaof5, post: 367224"] I'm a little easier going I suppose. I think it's just like cops and robbers, cowboys and indians just that it's reflecting the times we find ourselves in globally now. The news is constantly playing things about the war in Iraq. They probably hear other adults around them talking about it, may have a family member in the service as well. I would sit with the kids and flesh out rules of conduct. Maybe teach them about safety words when they get uncomfortable that they can say to stop the game. Keep them supervised as well and step in when it becomes apparent that one or more children are not comfortable or made to feel badly. I don't see a difference from that and the cops & robbers games we used to play as kids in all honesty. [/QUOTE]
