to use bondage tape on dd and dsd?

[Rachog]

Dd and dsd both 4 are into the little mermaid at the moment. Dd found a Christmas stocking in the toy box and was wearing it like a fin.

This of course caused arguments because dsd wanted a fin too. I remembered that I had a roll of pink bondage tape in the grown up toy box so I used it to bind their legs from knee to ankle leaving their feet Aw flippers.

The girls were made up with their mermaid tails and had lots of fun but when dp came in he was less than impressed.

The tape is like punk plastic on a roll that sticks to itself but not clothes or skin. It's quite flexible and easily torn to remove it.

So was I being unreasonAble?

No, YANBU, if you were fine with it.

I cannot 'blur the bounderies' on stuff like that.

As long as the kids don't actually know what it's supposed to be used for I don't see what the problem is.

Well! You learn something new everyday. I had no idea such stuff existed. YANBU - the kids have no idea what you guys use it for so as long as your OH doesn't actually say out loud then what possible harm is done? Not sure I would say the same if you were asking about usig a rampant rabbit as a wand but that's quite different!

That was my logic exactly, its not like the girls have any idea what its original purpose was, to them it was a tail.

I had to laugh at the rampant rabbit wand, I think that's definitely across the line somewhere

Originally I thought you were talking about duck tape - I was going to say you were unreasonable as it would be sticky and sore. Ingenious use of playthings for playthings in my opinion!

As long as it's not used already! No problem with it, no way in a million years they would know what it's for. In fact most adults wouldn't know! Once the wrapper is off most people wouldn't guess what it's for, in fact I've used it for various household bits n bobs over the years!

It's not a sex toy, it's a... material, a thing, marketed as an adut thing. Change the wrapper on it, it's slightly more advanced cling-film!

Dittany, I hope that when my dc are old enough to understand whAT it was we will have an open enough relationship to laugh about it.

I thought I was being pretty resourceful.

Not used, it just goes in the bin once u use it, you get plenty on a roll.

Ginevra - thanks, that's a better way of describing it, it is very much like clingfilm, I may take wrap dps sandwiches in it for work tomorrow Haha!

Its just tape at the end of the day, yanbu they don't know what it is for and it isn't a sex toy it is a material.

problems begin if your partner finds it a turn-on.

I can sort of see where your DP is coming from because of the jarring disconnect between 'bondage tape' and what it's for, and seeing it on a small child, but having strung several yards of something marketed as 'bondage rope' across my rat cage (I went looking for pure cotton rope in substantial lengths on ebay to use to make pet toys, this was cheapest....) I'm not sure I really get to talk....

Lovebunny I would certainly see it as a problem if dp found it a turn on in those circumstances however seems he's not a peadofile or into incest we are ok. I hope I have taken your point wrong there though?

I think dp was a bit shocked your right, he's not as imaginitive as me though and wouldn't think outside the box.

I'm sorry, but that is hilarious! Very inventive!

YANBU I have that tape, its better than using duct tape.

Of course it's fine. As someone else said, put a different wrapper on it and it's just tape.

It hasn't been used in a sexual way, obviously. I don't see a problem with it.
Just an inventive mum keeping the DC entertained!

I think the stuff is designed to be safe, not attahce things permenantly etc so sounds ideal!!!

People do that Reality?!?! Filthy bastards

I wouldn't like it if I returned home and saw that. Yabu.
