What am I teaching my child?

Several kids in the neighborhood enjoy Ding Dong Ditching our house. It happened twice just this afternoon. Jenelle wanted to play the game with me. So I crammed myself inside her little playhouse. She would knock on the door and run away. I pretended to be the irate neighbor. She couldn't stop laughing.

After a few rounds of this game, I thought I better explain how it's fun to pretend to Ding Dong Ditch, but we shouldn't bother our neighbors. She said she couldn't wait till she was older and she could play the game. I'm torn. Playing Ding Dong Ditch is something every kid has done. It's a total kid thing. But I should be teaching Jenelle good morals; not encouraging rowdy behavior.

Anyway, we're having a good time playing it at home. Look out neighbors!
