Racy board games shocks parents

A Lindenhurst mom was shocked while Christmas shopping for toys this week when she discovered that a game sold alongside Parcheesi and other kids games included drug humor and racy titles such as 'Lube Me or ...

What if my 13-year-old son had found that wrapped up under the tree?" asked Billie Thomas, 54, a registered nurse.----- He would have been a lucky kid

[Jim from MIddle Georgia]

wow- parents should have to check out what their children get.

That's so crazy it just might work! Imagine- being a responsible parent.

Thank you, Roger Bogstead, for being the voice of reason and stating what I thought would be obvious (Read the box/label before you buy it).

[Kenny Blankenship]

It's true -- have you seen the new "Operation" game? To win you have to "Abort Fetus"! What is this world coming to?

I WAS'NT AWARE THEY SOLD ADULT GAMES AT "TOYS-R-US". WOW! WHERE'S THE LINGERIE SECTION!!
ANY TOY STORE SELLING THIS GAME SHOULD BE BOYCOTTED!! I FOR ONE WILL NOT SHOP THERE AGAIN UNTIL THE GAMES ARE PULLED OFF THE SHELVES AND THEY MAKE A PUBLIC APPOLOGY!!

It goes along with anything else that is being sold, look it over , if you don't think it is appropriate, you don't buy it. and what if Billie Thomas' 13 year old got it under the tree, she would have no one to blame but herself, but we would probably see a lawsuit against toys r us andthe company that makes the game.

bored

[hah]

If this woman thinks that the stuff in that game is so shocking, she should hear what the kid is talking about with his other 13 year old friends.
Check the e-mails and sites he's visited. What Cable Channels/DVDs is he checking out and what video games does he play?
I'm sure that game is tame by comparison.

I think it should call it "Outburst for Adults",-(making all of the cards adult content)then the problem would be solved and they would sell more games.

I disagree with the other posters only because I think the name "Outburst remix" is a bit deceiving in my opinion, even with a small adult content label. It seems they tried to market a name that would garner a wider audience.

Beside that, why bother putting those type of cards in the box in the first place. What purpose would it serve? It could smear up the Matell name...

They sell games like grand theft auto as well, which glamorise theft, murder, crime, gangs, sex, violence, drug and alcohol use. they have warnings on them as well, but parents still buy the games for the kids, even though they have the warnings on them. boycott them all you want they are still going to sell the toys/games because they can and parents who can't say no, keep buying them for their kids and wonder why they have no morals or manners, and then blame society for the way they act. the simplest way to boycott anything is to just not buy it, if no one buys the game or toy, it will be put into clearance and it will not be sold anymore because no one bought it when it was commonly stocked. but you do still have the people who do want to buy the game/toy, and then those who don't want it and those who do are satisfied. You don't like it, Don't buy it, plain and simple

Lube me or lose me. Haha, that's great. These parents need to relax.

[Jeff]

The box says "for adults" in 6 different places (once on each side).

[NYC rocks]

What's the difference ? As soon as the parents leave the house, the kids play the smut videos of the parents who think they have them hidden and locked in the bedroom. Who's kidding who ?

[reagan]

I think that is teaching kids a good life lesson, dont be afraid to use lube!
