Slightly Disturbing Traditions

I just gave my two boys the wishbone from Thanksgiving to make a wish.

It gave me pause.

I handed my children a dried bone from a bird killed and eaten to celebrate gratitude.

Hmmm....just a little odd.

Of course, I don't know if it rates higher on the odd scale than searching for hidden eggs and treasure to celebrate the birth of spring.

Are other cultures just as odd?

  2. I've always found the wishbone thing creepy. I would never even do it as a child!
