## HOW TO TIE UP AND GAG AN ANNOYING KID

Thoughts on how to entertain that pesky neighbor, friend, or relative when he just gets too annoying to tolerate!
Now that you've captured him, he needs to be tied up and gagged. Tape is the best choice if you don't have a lot of skill or experience at this sort of thing. It is easy to work with and can be used for both the tying and the gagging. It is especially useful if you are in a hurry or if you have an unwilling victim on your hands who is kicking and screaming! With tape, you can get him quickly under control and quiet, and on with your day. Tape is also a little more comfortable for him to wear, but it can hurt like the dickens to take off!
When done correctly, rope ties are the most effective restraint and impossible to escape from, but they can be painful and are more difficult to apply. If you plan to tie him up again in the future, you might want to go easy on him this time around!
When using tape for a gag, most people rip a short strip off the roll and simply stick it on the victim's lips. I suppose some bumbling, inexperienced hostage takers believe it can keep their victim quiet, but this couldn't be farther from the truth! Others, I know, simply do it for effect; to make it look like heâ€™s been kidnapped. In any case, it does look nice, is easy to apply, but it is completely ineffectual! Unless the victim is young (under 4 or 5 years), with one simple opening of the jaw the gag is gone and it's off to Blabber Ville!
The best tape gag solution is to seal his mouth shut, running a continuous length over his mouth and back behind his head in several layers. Make sure you cover just below his nose to just under his chin in the process. That will make it harder for him to open his mouth. The effectiveness of this gag can be greatly improved by stuffing a wad of cloth into your victim's mouth before sealing it shut, but that can be dangerous and isnâ€™t very nice. A good tape wrap by itself will be the most effective and comfortable way to silence him. Either way, the wrapping has got to be tight!
Now, just a few generic words about tie ups. Tying someone with their hands in front is never good. Their hands must ALWAYS be tied behind their back, period. Even if he has his arms tightly secured to his body (except in a total mummification), he will always be able to move his hands just enough to get them up to his mouth to get his gag off. Youâ€™ve worked hard to keep him quiet, so you definitely don't want that!
Hogties are an extremely effective way to restrain a pesky kid. They are very difficult to get out of, but it's sure gonna be fun to watch him try! There are two main reasons why it is hard to escape a hogtie. First of all, being put into a hogtie makes it difficult to maneuver and to see what you are doing. Almost all the victim's struggles will be done blindly. Second, the victim will get fatigued rapidly in the hogtie position and will soon give up. The hogtie, though, must be done well, with no more than 3 or 4 inches of space between his hands and his bound ankles. The "stricter" the hogtie, the better!
Chair ties are also fun. As with all tie ups, success starts with a proper binding of the wrists. The other key to an effective chair tie is to attach the victim to the chair in the most restrictive manner possible. How you achieve this depends on the chair.
Start with your victim's wrists crossed one over the other and, you guessed it, BEHIND his back. Wrap them tightly with a length of rope or tape, first vertically, then horizontally. Do not do more than two or three revolutions each way, otherwise he will be able to create enough slack with his struggles to slip his hands through the ties. If possible, tie your knot on the inside surface of his wrists (between his wrists and his back), to make it harder for his fingers to reach and fiddle with the knot.
Now, sit your hostage down in the chair with his arms over the seat back (i.e. the seat back will be between his bound wrists and his back). You will only be able to do this if you are using a relatively small chair with either a low or a narrow seat back. Run some rope or tape between his wrists and the bottom rung of the chair, making sure it is tight enough to yank his arms downward in maximal extension. Be firm but aware that this will be a little uncomfortable. No worries! If you've gagged him properly, you won't have to deal with his complaining!
If possible (depending on the chair), tie his upper arms individually to the seat back at the point where they pass around to the other side. If you want, you can also tie his torso and his waist into the chair, but this is not essential.
To secure his legs, you have two choices. The best is to individually tie each ankle to a front leg of the chair. However, if you prefer, you can tie his ankles and knees together, then wrap tape or rope around his thighs and the seat bottom. Either way, this kid' ainâ€™t goin' anywhere!
If the seat back of the chair is too tall or broad to allow for the previous positioning, you will need to tie your hostage's elbows as close together as possible with rope or tape (without hurting him). Then, secure his wrists and upper arms to his body with a full wrapping of his chest and his waist, before you sit him down. Once seated in the chair, secure his chest and waist to the chair, if you have any binding materials left! Finish off his legs as previously described, and youâ€™re about done.
Despite the advantages of tape, I still prefer to use a cloth gag, though cloth is very easy to defeat. A simple cloth "cleave" gag wonâ€™t muffle your victim's protests very effectively, but it sure looks nice! If necessary, this type of gag can be reinforced with tape or made more horrible with a mammoth mouth packing, but that detracts from the aesthetics and is just plain mean (and dangerous)! Typically, simply threatening your victim with this sort of treatment will serve to shut him right up and keep that cloth gag in place!
For me, watching a hogtied or chair tied kid struggle earnestly to get free, all the while "mphffing" muffled protests through the white strip of cloth clenched tightly between his teeth and knotted firmly behind his head is the ideal kidnapped kid scenario! If you donâ€™t hurt him, he will probably want you to do it again. So, have fun, and please send photos!
