4.What kind of games did Goffman see children in the neighborhood playing? What does this tell you about what these kids are seeing in their community? Explain.

She had seen kids playing a game of chase. Kids would split up into two groups, those being chased and those doing the catching. If they were caught, they would get handcuffed. This tells me that kids are seeing things they shouldn’t be seeing in their communities.
