When my family plays board games, such as Monopoly, we make up our own rules all the time. When the game first starts, one of each number of bill goes into the jackpot. After someone wins it, we throw it in again. We do not play standard Backgammon, (mostly cause we can't remember how the board gets set up). it's a mental block thing that runs in the family? Instead we play Russian Backgammon. For games I guess it's alright, but, I don't think I'd want the responsibility for making rules for anyone else's way of living. I do make the rules on how to live my own life though, and God help the person who tries to change that.
