i got this humor email form a friend and i want it to share with all of you. after reading y discussion please look at the photo attached and it will be an added spice to the humor. i had a good laugh at this i hope you will have to. this is only just for fun. Most of America's populace think that its improper to spank children. The other day I was talking to one of my younger buddies about methods used to discipline children. We talked about 'time outs', grounding, holding back 'rewards' until the child displayed desired behavior etc. One of the things we discussed was the act of spanking and my friend explained that no, he does not spank any of his children. He explained that what he does is to take the misbehaving child out for a ride in the car and talk. He said that usually this works and that the child calms down fairly quickly and really doesn't take too much time. By removing the child, in this case his son, from the immediate situation and providing a change of scenery, the child is allowed to focus on something different. Once the child has the opportunity to change perspective, things get better quickly and the child has better understanding of his place within the family and begins to understand the families concept of acceptable behavior. He kindly shared a picture of the process which I share with you now.

i thought you forgot the joke and proceeded to get serious with your topic roni. ^__^;; i was starting to be convinced of the effectiveness of that disciplining method your friend is using with his children. poor kid! probably too mischievous that he deserved a car-disciplining like that. LOL

yes it was shot in a very convincing way, that kid is a good actor i may say. for he had fooled a lot of us and also made us smile or made a good laugh out of it. sometimes we really need a joke like this to make us laugh out loud and really make our day. thanks for the response hatley have a nice day
