Deadly games

Last Tuesday I wrote about peace and what society we produce when adults cannot be a good example to their children. Today I read in the newspaper an article about games of death. In some French schools it is apparently a cyclic problem that children (7-17 years old) play very dangerous games. There are about 90 of these dangerous games where children kick or strangle each other to death. In some schools surveillance is not constant and since 1998 at least 300 children died in these games. TNS healthcare did a research and found that at least a million kids admit they assisted or participated in dangerous games. I find this really incredible. I never heard of this before. A group of parents made a website to inform parents and teachers about prevention.
