The “Eraser Challenge” is Another Stupid Trend Among Kids

Stupidness seems to be the them this week among the youth of the nation.

I know I did stupid things when I was younger but come on. A new trend that is getting noticed is the "Eraser Challenge".

The challenge has kids rubbing an eraser on their arm while they say the alphabet and then passing the eraser to the next kid so they can do it. Then they compare how bad their arms are. Sounds harmless enough right? Wrong. The main concern is that they are rubbing their skin raw, causing bleeding and then passing the eraser to the next kid to do the same thing.

Videos have popped up on YouTube of kids doing this and the fear is the spreading of blood born pathogens and other problems.
