I’ve just beaten my 8 year old daughter at monopoly. I owned nearly all of the board and she had debts exceeding £1200. She’s in tears. Am I a bad dad? |

Made me laugh that. I never used to go easy on my kids with any type of games. My family used to tell me off for it. In my opinion it gave them s good life lesson, things won't always go their way x |

Still remember my daughter’s (in their 30’s) trouncing a party of kids on the ferry in a Disney songs quiz. You’d have thought they’d just won mastermind how they acted lol |

Definitely not! She has to learn that you can’t always win!  |

That all depends on the compound interest rate you have set on the debt- along with the terms and timescale to pay it back- as long as its not quite Wonga level you'll get away with it |

No. Keep being ruthless till the table goes up in the air. She'll thank you when she's older x |

The playing pieces are all the same to; Hammer & Sickles. All properties and money are immediately paid back to the State whereupon it is likely spent on Warheads and chemical nerve agents research.
An extra rule has also been added; Any player rolling anything beneath a six will be immediately escorted from the room whereupon they will subsequently undergo lengthy interrogation and possible torture in order to determine if they have any filthy Capitalist leanings |

So you too have played the game. I played game too. I am great leader in game. All players are equal, but leaders are more equal than others. |
