Truth or dare?

Let’s begin with the truth, shall we?

Truth or Dare is one of the best ways to break the ice and get a group of strangers know each other. However, without proper supervision and guidance, teens might use this game to bully others.

As a parent, you can stop that by teaching your kids the best way to play this game. Start by giving the top truth or dare questions for teens, compiled by the fun-loving MomJunction team!

Truth Or Dare Questions For Teenagers

Before we list down the questions for you, here is a quick summary of what the game is about (if you haven’t played it before).

Kids sit in a circle and take turns. In parties, they usually spin a bottle and whoever the top of the bottle points at has to choose: truth or dare. If the person chooses truth, he or she has to answer a question asked by one of the other players. If they choose dare, they have to do something silly, embarrassing, or funny as directed by the others.

Here is a list of truth and dare questions for teenagers along with the description of the dare that he has to take up if he chooses to. We have listed out the ‘Truth’ and the ‘Dare’ questions separately so that you can combine any two questions from each category.

Don’t Break The Rules

Wherever you play the game, and whoever you play it with, make sure you follow the rules.

One person in the group is asked “truth or dare?” by another.

If they pick ‘truth’, the other player will ask a simple, embarrassing, or tricky question. They should answer it truthfully, without any fiction or omissions.

If they pick “dare”, the other person will ask them to do something daring, and the player has to do it without hesitation.

If the dare is too uncomfortable or embarrassing the player can ask for another.

Once they tell the truth or do the dare, they can pick another player and ask them “truth or dare?”

Remember that the objective of the game is to have fun and not humiliate anyone. After all, the people you would be playing the game with are your friends.
