[QUOTE="Star*, post: 423183, member: 4964"] DF is the absolute KING of sideways humor and it saved our home many, many times from tragedy with Dudes temper. For example. Dude would be walking across the kitchen floor and slip on a throw rug. Instead of anyone laughing or Dude crying. DF would quickly get down on his hands and knees and inspect the floor and say "Good GOD BOY - With all your muscles I think you dented the dang floor." (gets down and looks to be sure Dude is okay) feels the floor - reaches out and feels Dudes muscles "Yes sir Mother I think you are going to have to remove those throw rugs, one more fall like that with those GUNS and we're liable to not have a kitchen floor!" Dude would just smirk - I would remark "I see that." and Dude wouldn't get upset. Then we'd all get a good chuckle. One time Dude went over the handlebars of his bike and broke off his front tooth. Dude came home upset - and DF looked at him, knew he was upset and instead of freaking out he said "HOW MANY TIMES have I told you to use your brakes to stop the bikes NOT your face." - his buddies chuckled and DF got a washcloth Then came out and handed him a set of Billy Bob teeth and said "Well you know we can't afford a dentist so here's the best I can do until your Mom gets home." - and then they BOTH sat there in fear of my return home. DF allowed Dude to ride his bike when his jaw was wired shut and he wasn't really supposed to be riding. -----so yeah. My kid anyway reacted lots better with humor and has an AWESOME sense of it.
