[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 387035, member: 1233"] My kids know to NEVER EVER EVER embarrass me in public. BEcause I WILL retaliate. BIG. One of husband's friends back in OH had a child who was completely rude at dinner with the grandparents one day. Two days later C was in Kmart with his son. A girl his son liked (son was 15 and knew EVERYTHING, of course) was there and son ignored him to go talk to her. C walked up and put his arm around his son and asked who his friend was. As they walked away C kept his arm around his son and LOUDLY asked if they had the superman underwear that they needed to replace after his accident last night? The son started to say something nasty and C kept hold of him and quietly said that if he EVER embarrassed him in front of relatives the way he had, the embarrassment that C dished back would be ten times worse than he had just done. Being an intelligent young man, C's son never again said anything rude or ill mannered around any of the relatives. NOT something i made up. My kids are actually afraid of what I would think up. They have seen me create all sorts of cool, fun party cakes, outfits for events and Halloween, and other things. They fear that if they don't keep me busy I will use those skills for "evil", aka figuring out some way to embarrass them! Wiz got much better behaved at school in jr high when the office ladies and vice principal had no problem if husband wanted to sing a Barney song over the intercom and dedicate it to Wiz. He actually turned pale when the ladies said it would be fine with them!!! Of course thank you is harder to embarrass so far. husband asks for him at school by a different name each day. Derek Stonehenge was a favorite. The office ladies and his teacher LOVE it, and so does his class. Today he is Doctor Frankenslime, lol! [/QUOTE]
