A new worry for parents of kids and teens: the snap game

Kids and teens are finding more and more ways to initiate sex and it’s all with games. Remember those colored jelly bracelets from the '80s?

They’re back and used in “Snap Game” which is very popular among adolescents and teens. All a girl has to do is wear them and boys snap them. The rules of the “Snap Game” require its players to do anything from kissing to actual intercourse. A little like “spin the bottle” as in past generations, but not nearly as harmless.

Depending on what color bracelet the boy snaps on your daughter’s wrist here’s what she’ll be required to do:

Yellow - wearer gives a HUG
Glittery Yellow – weares KISSES and HUGS
Orange – wearer KISSES
Purple – wearer KISSES partner of either sex
Glittery Purple – wearer FRENCH KISSES
Glittery Clear - wearer allows the snapper to TOUCH ANY BODY PART
Pink - wearer gives a HICKEY
Red - wearer performs a LAP DANCE on snapper
Green – wearer allows ORAL SEX performed on her
Dark Green – wearer performs manual sex on her snapper
White - wearer FLASHES her snapper
Clear – wearer allows WHATEVER the snapper wants (the most dangerous)
Blue – wearer performs ORAL SEX on her snapper
Black - wearer has regular MISSIONARY SEX
Glittery Blue – wearer performs ANAL SEX

Parents don’t have a clue! Yet, in some states such as Colorado, Ohio and Florida, it’s become such a problem for elementary and middle schools, that many school districts have banned these bracelets.

No one should ever feel pressured to engage in any activity that they’re not comfortable with -- whether it’s sexual or not.

Unprotected sex is unsafe and could be potentially deadly as HIV and STDs are passed on in this manner.

Of course, some kids just wear these bracelets for fashion. But if your daughter is wearing any or all of these colored jelly bracelets it could be cause for concern and time to have a conversation.

Take a deep breath and talk to your daughter. Teach her about the consequences from STD’s to pregnancy. Teach your daughters about smart choices.

If she’s wearing these bracelets strictly for fashion that’s wonderful but be sure to still have the talk. It’s about educating our kids and understanding what they do today VS what we did. It’s not the same but with peer pressure and kids being kids, it’s better for you and your kids to be educated.
