Question
I'm a 12 year old boy who just moved into a knew school. A group of friends invited me to hang out at one of there houses Friday night. These kids were skinny kids dident look nerdy so I though they are cool at this school. Wen I get there there parents are not home and like me and 5 other kids. Everything is going great until dinner time comes. They were like I'm so hungry rubbing there tummys and then all of the sudden they all look at me. They all say hey we could eat mike he looks pretty tender. (I thought they were joking cause I'm skinny with a slight build) so I went ya alot of people say I could make a great meal(sarcasticly). They go really and all pinn me to the ground and picked me up and broght me to the kids kitchen. They put me on a counter( I was laphimg thinking it was a joke. They they took of my shirt and pants every thing besides my under ware and put me in a cooking tray and tied me down on it so I couldent get up. They started to put salt and pepper on me taped my mouth shut and then all this fancy stuff I don't know wat it was on my stomack my legs. They were actually rubbing it on me liked they liked it. They they untied me let me up and turned me on my back and they took my under ware off so I was now butt naked. They took my hands and took duck tape and taped them to the cooking tin. They they put my legs over my hand and ducked tape them to the ground. So my butt was in the air. This hurt so bad I almost cried. They preheated the oven and were about to cook me wen the parents called and said they are coming home in 30 mins. They all got mad cause they could not eat me without getting caught. So they let me go free but before I put my clothes on they said since I have all the ingrediants on me they get a taste test. So they all started to like me and they liked the flavor. Wen I got home that night my mom told me that I'm sleeping over that kids house two days from know cause it's his birthday party. And no parents would be there. Should I tell my mom I what happened cause I'm Afraid I might be the birthday dinner. Please answer my qestion

Answer
Hi,

YES!! PLEASE tell your mother what happened. What they did is completely wrong. I do not think they will seriously eat you, however, they were trying to scare you. They were bullying you and making you feel very uncomfortable. Please tell your mother very soon. Your mother will not like what happened but I bet she will make sure it never happens to you again.
