Tough Love
Got this from a friend, thought it was amazing.
Much has been said about "tough love" for misbehaving children.
Most of America's populace thinks it very improper to spank children, so Cathy and I have tried other methods to control our kids when they have one of "those moments".
One that we found very effective for me, is just take the child for a car ride and talk. They usually calm down and stop misbehaving after our little car ride together. I've included the photo below of one of my sessions, with our son Robert, in case you would like to use the technique. Its very effective!

what car drives at 99 MPH on the grass?? and in a 35 MPH zone no less...proof that parents aren't as responsible as they pretend to be...
hahah i have some buddies with problem children i'm so sending this to.
I like this thing almost as much as I like the video of the kid screaming in a store, cos he wants candy, and his father says no, and the kid screams nonstop, basically screams his head off, and people are staring, and the kid is just screaming, and then it says "USE CONDOMS"
haha i love it
that one is classic....i have a ton of nieces and nephews and they've done that to me and thats one of the reasons i don't want kids ni this system....
Yeah I totally agree with you about that. lol
I love my neices and nephews but man sometimes I so want to kill them, though I usually just pull a chelios on them today. (Ok I've got to stop saying that what is my problem today. lol)
I've never seen that commercial but it is so true. lol
what are they?
Well kids are those little people you see around that you were before you got older. I hope that helps a little. :-P
i saw that one. that kid has a major melt-down. it's another language too and he's like, "zeh boo de babas!!!" flippin' out.
Are you sure you weren't just watching the Spanish channel?
haha so funny... here it is: /files/grocery_.avi
Thats great, but I'll stick with just beating the crap out of my kids! The belt worked for me!
Your kids?? lol
ROFL!
UN-possible. The kid is hanging onto winshield wipers. Kid looks like an average white american 8yr old, who should way.. if not malnourished, about 70lbs. Now winshield wipers are not strong enough to be held on to. it's a fact.
obviously, Mr. Obvious, it's not real
obviously oyu aren't real either.
well, that's obvious
Not to mention that car is in park just by looking at the position of the shifter!
I'm up for a test run of this, whos up?! I'll ride the hood, wouldn't be the first time! :P
I want to ride on the hood.
also....the 99 would actually be in red instead of orange...as soon as you start going 5 miles over the speed limit...it turns RED (i know, i test to see how fast i can go whenever i see these things...and don't tell me there is a camera in there, cause i dont believe it)
Maybe you're color blind, cause they pretty much nailed it I thought. ;)
no, i'm saying...the color they have up is the orange that it shows when you aren't speeding...but once you start speeding, its turns to red
Hahaha I was just gonna say I've never seen it orange but..there's probably a reasonable explanation for that :)
I always see them as one color, and I'm just like you I'll speed up to see if my speedometer is right. :)
yeah....i've noticed that the one by my school actually clocks me at like 3 miles less then i'm doing...and everytime i see it, i wonder which is more accurate, it...or my car...but i figure my car is probably right....then again...it is a jetta :-/
Hey I drive a jetta too!
jetta buddies 4 life, haha
Most likely, the radar is more accurate.
Well it has been proven that radar can be off by up to 3 mph.
Yeah, and I've proven that my speedometer can be off by 91mph! :P
Yeah I've driven with you. lol
I love how sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. lol
why cant i see this picture? it bothers me.
oh crap
