It was a confusion of ideas between him and one of the lions he was hunting in Kenya that had caused A. B. Spottsworth to make the obituary column. He thought the lion was dead, and the lion thought it wasn't. - P.G. Wodehouse | |

I think your best point, Steve, is that parental credibility is huge. If you tell a child 'If you act like that you are going to get it' and then don't follow up, you are done. It is over, and your child will rule the roost. But.. if you immediately follow up in the manner you said, the kid knows what comes out of your mouth means something. |
