Omg you are SO fucking kidding me.

Do you REALLY think I am going to let you cancel the Seder just because I'm sick?
Wtf parents. Use your brain. Passover is my (semi-)favorite holiday! Why would I EVER let you ruin it for me just because I'm a little weak?

I've been WAITING SO LONG FOR PASSOVER to solicit all my (useless) cousins to watch Prince of Egypt with me, and now? D: D: D:

Biting your parents in the ass because they're worried about you is probably not going to do anything to THEIR karma.

So...umm...I've heard that a great deal of the Passover Sedar rituals are about doing strange things to manipulate kids into asking about the rituals and therefore the religion, so that they may be taught instead of told. Is this true? ^^;

...What? XD
Maybe you're talking about the Afikoman? It's a matzah you break in two and hide, and children are supposed to look for it and whoever does gets an awesome present. (Or money, it varies from family to family, or year to year. XP;)
There's this... sort-of prayer (it's rather long) before, during and after the meal and hymns that tell the story of the Exodus but you don't need to manipulate anyone. ^^;;;;;

Passover is really fun, so there's no need to trick anyone. \o/ Kids enjoy the story because it's the superspecialawesome kind of history, very interesting and... sorta Sci-Fi-ish. XD;

Since it's so uncommon. :D;
I... hope I answered your question properly? I probably misunderstood it. a/////a
