Teachers apparently didn't foresee Ouija board ruckus
Tim Ellefson said he was shocked when his son, who is in seventh grade, came home interested in a book about Ouija boards and summoning spirits.
While many see the Ouija board as a harmless game for fun, others like Ellefson think it's evil.
"We're Christians, and we try to raise our son to be a Christian," said Tim Ellefson, a parent. "My belief is good spirits are in heaven. Bad spirits come from the other place. And I don't want my children connecting with bad spirits."
So Ellefson was furious when he learned a teacher brought a Ouija board into his 13-year-old son's classroom at Burns Middle School in Brandon.
His teacher invited a fellow teacher from another Hillsborough County school to speak to her reading class.
The teacher, Theresa Clinton, is also an author and wrote a book – "Ouija Board Diaries: Summoning Spirits."

Most Christians view Ouija as satanic. That the teacher was unaware of this is surprising to me. Most people know, whether they believe it or not, not to bring stuff like tarot or Ouija around Christian kids. I remember when I was child, many years ago, a kid brought a ouija to school for a grab bag gift - the teacher quietly removed it.

More evidence that if you care about your kids...DON’T send them to government schools...

...you all know that if the teacher brought a crucifix or a rosary to school to talk to the kids about Christianity, he’d be fired, or repremanded....

...opening your front door and allowing anyone who happens to pass by to come in. I have read the most modern cases of possession are the result of “playing” with a Ouija board or some other method of communicating with the dead.
