[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 450616, member: 84"] Doesn't it make for a lovely shopping experience? Now I've lost it with my kids, but in public I found dropping my voice both in tone and volume was enough to get their attention they were walking a fine line. If that didn't work, taking hold of their arm in such a way as fingernails tend to dig into the skin should they resist and escorting them to the restroom for a "talk" (ahem cough cough, words sometimes were not enough) did. After that? The phrase "Would you like to go have a painful discussion about this in the restroom?" said with a calm voice, a smile, and the Mom look was enough to stop them dead in their tracks. It was a rare event that I ever had issues with my kids in public. lol [/QUOTE]
