Penni, you could never be a sick, perverted person. You would love my brother he used to kick my butt all the time while we were growing up playing that darn scrabble game! Maybe that's why I'm such a lousy speller today?? It brings back too many memories of my older brother laughing out loud as he nailed a "quiz" on the triple word spot.

I wouldn't beat myself up to bad about the movie thing either. Sometimes you can help it, and other times their going to just catch that stuff at a friends house or something anyway. At least you have the knowledge of it effecting him so you can talk about it with him.

I don't know what I'm going to do in a few years when they start staying over friends houses who's parents aren't as fanatical as Iam.
I guess I'll just play it by instinct, and do whatever I think is best at the time.

That's really the weird thing about this whole rating system isn't it? Sometimes you can see an R rated movie and it doesn't seem that bad, (like Men in black) then other times it can be brutal. Whoever rates those things doesn't have a clue about what effects kids.

I have a fantasy that someday the wordmeisters of DAR get together for a weekend getaway --maybe a secluded lodge somewhere--with a case or two of very good wine and a couple of good dictionaries- and we PLAY WORD GAMES all night long. Do you think I am a really sick, perverted person?

Yes.
