Reply To: Stealing the Afikomon

Bottom line, do you announce that the afikoman is hefker before the children steal it, so that they should not be oiver on geneivah ( which applies even as a joke or game). Parents are required to prevent their children from fom being oiver aveiros, and the simple solution is to make the afikomon hefker. Do you do this, or not? If not, why don’t you?
