I prob would recommend against the surprise-them-in-bed-naked idea

That sucks…let him know you love him…that you are worried about him.

Did it work?

And made me hate exercise

runnincoug

Yeah, we were all pretty well behaved. I think the key counter balance was that we didn't really have spoken rules

Some thoughts… depends on how worried you are and kids age

That's awful. Punching your kid in the face?

jacobugath

Jun 1, 8:19am

Not as awful as some of the effects of underage drinking.

Nagurski

Jun 1, 8:24am

Most of the effects of drinking are not worse than a father punching their kid in the face. That’s just stupid. You

Ojiisan

My dad was the mesh onesie style.

I would have waited until he came home and hid in his closet with a clown mask

wish my parents had taken this kind of approach with my younger sister.

One thing that kept me out of trouble was not wanting to break my parents trust.
