"One couple in our group took a chessboard to their supervised visit at the DSS office with their daughters ages 10 and 12. They were reprimanded and it was written into their ‘service plan’ that, in the future, they were to bring more ‘age appropriate games.’" Moore says that should give pause to those parents who think that they are doing a good job raising their kids and challenging their intellects at an early age, with games like chess. She continues, "The general public, placated by fast food, shiny cars, and mass-produced designer clothes, don’t think it can happen to them," as if this type of thing only happens to smokers and alcoholics who fail drug tests.
