System

Saw this on an american site gives these as potential warning signs to look out for:

Any suspicious mark on the side of the neck, sometimes hidden by a turtleneck, scarf or permanently turned-up collar.
Changes in personality, such as overtly aggressive or agitated.
Any kind of strap, rope or belt lying around near the child for no clear reason—and attempts to elude questions about such objects.
Headaches (sometimes excruciatingly bad ones), loss of concentration, flushed face.
Bloodshot eyes or any other noticeable signs of eye stress.
A thud in the bedroom or against a wall—meaning a fall in cases of solitary practice.
Any questions about the effects, sensations or dangers of strangulation.

The first funeral I ever went to was of a school friend who died playing this game - 30 years ago. Dreadful, tragic - but not new, sadly.

How terribly sad. I'd never heard of this 'game' until I read this thread.

I've signed the petition.

Thanks for that - how sad.

Have signed the petition and put the link on Facebook.

I don't know what's the matter with these kids - there's enough to harm them in the world without them trying to find new ways.
