    this is lovely but i thought DNO said that they were not using any photo with children on it, or is this for one set of people, the reason why i said this, i had a beautiful photo with children at the hot spring and they told me so. so what is going on DNO arent they children?

    When I play Dominica I love to slam down, especially when I secretly call for a Domino, which I receive–that idea which tells me I know what I am doing in the game–much more so when I capture the win.

    But in that picture here, it seem as if things are changing; as I see that the youths have a holder for their Dominoes, and I cannot imagine the slamming I would have done on a flat table. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

    Anyway a Domino game is so much fun for me, I will even take that game to Paradise with me. Which means that all those who have played Domino with me, will be in Paradise as well.

      Tiny, it isn’t because your parents did a poor job with you and you are obviously a dysfunctional woman to think that parents don’t advise their kids. There are many parents doing a good job with their children albeit most are too ineffective as advisers.

    that bring a little tears to my eyes .i remember about one week after we moved to the u.s my son would stay up till i get home from work about one in the morning just that i play domino with him (or sometimes monopoly).the times i could not play he would be so upset and complain that every time i come from work i am tired .all the things he misses back home .one month later he said mammy i am ready to go back home i think we stayed here long enough .18 years later we are still here but i no he is not one of the children that took the migration well at all.

      Not because you live in the U.S you have to forget the little special things you used to do as a family when you were back home.

    As a kid we were not allowed to play dominoes. What parents do not realize is that this game can help children with mathamatical skills. Counting at an early age, eg there are so many 4’s in the pack, if three are on the table how many are left etc.) It is more of the mental math. It is how the game is played.

    Go Kiddies, go.
    Maybe we should run a one day (Sunday) dominoes for kids–that should be fun to look at. A way of testing the brains…see how intelligent they are. Remember, dominoes is our local “Chess”–meeting of the minds… :-D

      TINY! Didn’t your mother tell you if you can’t say something nice, don’t say nothing at all. You don,t have to like the game. Just looking at the pic makes one smile. Take a closer look, the kids have nice hair cuts and hair styles. They are dressed like kids should be, they are in a safe place. There is even adult supervision. Look at the pic, a picture says a thousand words.
