The Father cannot stay with any of the daughters, without their Mother's presence.

Sounds more like Britian, tbh...

Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

The following rules apply:

Only 2 people on the raft at a time.
The Father cannot stay with any of the daughters, without their Mother's presence.
The Mother cannot stay with any of the sons, without their Father's presence.
The thief (striped shirt) cannot stay with any family member, if the Policeman is not there.
Only the Father, the Mother and the Policeman know how to operate the raft

Hands up who else got this far and immediately thought "is the father a paedophile?"

I remember doing something similar to this when I was a kid, but it had wolves, foxes and cabbages iirc

Yep, I think it's too late for this.

Yeah and if you left them the wolf might eat the fox and the fox might eat the...cabbage. Hmm, not so sure on that one. There was a bag of gold coins or something I think too. I'd be taking the money and running tbh.
