PSA # 317

Having trouble with your kids? Do you have an unruly household? Need some shalom in your home?

Try this: Gather all your kids into the living room. Have a clip board and a pen in your hands and a very serious look on your face.

In an ominous tone, say the following: “Due to the looming economic crisis, some cut backs have to be made. Unfortunately, I’m going to have to let one of you go. I’ll make my decision by the end of the week.”

From that point on, carry your clip board and pen. One of them looks at you funny, scribble furiously. They complain about dinner, scribble furiously. Someone doesn’t make their bed, shake your head a little while scribbling furiously.

Your house will be in order inside of three days guaranteed.
