Reidy Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 I had a teacher in grade school who was fond of saying "put that in your pipe and smoke it." But that was many years ago, when "a snort" meant a drink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Cole Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 "You're cruisin' for a bruisin'"Heard my father say this once or twice when I was very young. Heard my uncle say it once to his kids. Makes me thing it was intergenerational. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xray Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 (edited) You'll put your eye outIf your friend Shelly jumped off the roof would you jump off too/?Ba'al ChatzafOh, I use that one quite often with my kindergartners (although my own parents never used it with us children). I use it if a child tries to blame own misbehavior on another kid, claiming that "Shelly" told him/her to do it.Works quite well in most cases.But still, be prepared for the unexpected. I do recall getting eager "Yes!" answers occasionally. ;) Edited June 25, 2011 by Xray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Discipline should be in the form of a tax on pocket money earned through chores. Unfortunately, these days parents just give their kids money to shut them up.
