[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 368460, member: 1233"] Did you know that you can get rolls of duct tape that are 11 inches wide?? I just love love love it!! Duct tape comes in many many colors. Even tie dye! Wally World has a rack of different colors here. I have been known to offer a child a color choice. "If you do not stop that/stop whining/stop screaming/stop X, Y or Z I am going to duct tape your mouth shut. Which color would you prefer? This one brings out your eyes, but that one matches your outfit." It stopped Wiz in his tracks one day. He just really did not know how to take that. I was calm, nice, used an ordinary voice as if I had asked him if he wanted chocolate or vanilla ice cream, and I SMILED. When he was done staring and stammering and left the room I burst out laughing into a pillow (so he wouldn't hear me). He was very solicitous later. Turns out he heard me and thought I was so upset I was crying! duct tape. It's a beautiful thing. [/QUOTE]
