okay Mr. Ron.

ONE- i read your home page… let me just say, target has pinatas up all year long.

TWO- i feel like you don’t properly know how to work a pinata. first you tie a rope to it. second you through it over a tall tree branch or something. third you get away from the one with a bat/stick. and four, the most important one of all, make sure every kid, animal, or adult, is OUT of the way or else you will be hit and may break bones.

THREE- don’t get so damn pissed at you daughter when it was clearly an accident, i mean come on, how old is she? if she knew better then i would get mad, but come on we all learn from our mistakes

therefor you clearly did something wrong/were too close, or maybe your daughter just thinks that you an over baring/hovering parent who has their child on a leash.

oh and honest question..
when you go to busy places, do/did you put your child on a leash?

I have to say- this website may have averted a catastrophe! I was going to get a pinata for my daughter’s 6th birthday party but, after reading all of the stories and statistics on here, I changed my mind. We just gave them some nice fireworks to play with and then later we’re going to throw knives.

1- Candy
Choose candy that the children are able to choke on – keep in mind that children can choke on many different types, especially if there is a lot of excitement and they are in a hurry – be prepared to place a plastic bag over the head of any child that does not appear to be asphyxiated.

2- The Club
Have the children use a club that is made out of a heavy metals (eg lead baseball bat preferably with spikes)- the children may not take be able to pick it up so feed them some red bull half an hour before you begin. For some children you may want to have them hit another child without the blindfold.

-3- Range
Have one person at a time hit the pinyata with no physical barrier between the pinyata and the other children, preferably place the children nearby.
Warn the children to rush in when candy comes out of the pinata/pinyata or the candy might be all gone if they are too slow. When it falls the person with bat often wants to continue striking, furthermore, the pinata itself sometimes injures a child.

-4- Instructions
Repeat the instructions as all children are dumbasses and have more than one adult help murder the appropriate aged people as well as enforce participation by all children.

Oh and by the way, how is the murder of these precious pinata animals even legal? This is what we think of as fun, in civilized society? I’ve had friends who say they have had bull or cow or sheep pinatas that were attacked with baseball bats at their kids party. How is that even legal, nevermind fun?

What has become of our society? We need to save these pinatas – it’s as bad as clubbing those seals in those cold places you see on TV.

I have the box set of When Animals Attack Vols 1 to 5 and I can totally see these poor pinatas finally fight back one day. It really saddens me and saddens me that our kids are taught to think it’s ok.

I agree with you. We need to stop these children’s parties that add the beating of an innocent pinata and making it seem like fun. It’s too easy for these kids to go home and repeat the beatings of these sweet animals on innocent people. We also banned the singing of ‘happy birthday to you’ so as not to offend the other kids who weren’t celebrating their own birthdays and felt like blowing out candles was simply playing with fire.

Thanks for this website – it’s about time we made kids parties about fun and safety and not about having candy spilled from the guts of an innocent animal who was beaten to death. It’s gross.

Although I can understand the opinions of people bashing your story and making fun of the situation, I can completely understand your perspective. I used to be a costumed character for b-day parties, and used to watch as kids would wack away at pinatas with a “plastic” bat. I used to find it funny that parents would get upset over kids jumping all over each other to get the candy that came out, but wouldn’t have a problem with them wacking away at the pinata. It was such a violent part of the show, and it created a lot of problems. Luckily, I was responsible enough to never let a kid get struck with the bat, but I had to take the brunt of some of those blows to protect them. Not a big deal, but … I understand.

Did you know you can kill someone with a pencil?! I saw it on CSI. This little girl killed an old lady because the lady wouldn’t give the girl her cat. If no one had ever given the little girl a pencil, that woman would not have been killed! We should stop this violence immediatly! Stop teaching our children how to write, so there will never be a need for pencils!

As anyone stopped to think who the real victim is here? So what, you got your eye bashed in. Do you know what kind of abuse I suffer on a regular basis? You deserved it. I’ve seen too many good pinatas go before their time to care what happens to one lousy human. Way to have your priorities in line. All of my kids have been brutally beaten to death by little cretins like your daughter. Here’s hoping she’s next.

Ron,

I have never seen a mother as neurotic as you are… if we don’t teach our children violence, who will?

I mean, no kid is ever going to get violent at all unless we introduce them to pinatas (as you well point out, 75% of the prison population has participated on pinata parties at one point or another) or toothbrushing (100% of the prison population has brushed their teeth at one point or another) or reading (93.5% of the prison population has read something at one point or another.)

I commend your efforts to eradicate pinata related violence and, in fact, I don’t feel you go far enough! Let’s expand to tooth brushing related violence (have you noticed how you make a fist to hold the toothbrush? and repeatedly jab? I’m sure children would never, ever punch anyone without this early brainwashing technique.)

Keep up the good work. Or not.

Recently, I purchased a pinata at a grocery store. The next day, I woke up to discover that the pinata had kidnapped my children, stolen my booze, killed my lover, and trampled my geraniums. WE MUST STOP THIS PINATA VIOLENCE LEST PINATAS CONTINUE TO TRAMPLE OUR GARDENS.
