Is it Wrong to Scare your Own Children?

Is it wrong to jump out and surprise your own kids, say by hiding in
their closet when they go to bed, or by shouting BOO as they round a blind corner?

It probably is, but 8-5 year olds are so darn gullible and unsuspecting,
it is just too easy and funny to pass up.

I always lay off if they start crying.
