The power of humor

A mother finds creative solutions to cope with the difficult behavior of her child. 

When he was about to open the car window, when she was driving,  to throw out his piece of bread, she told him: "Our Nissan does not spit bread!" That was enough to make him stop.

When he took his bricks onto his bed to play, when it was time to sleep, she told him: "Now the bed is angry, because it wants to calm you and make you relax in order to fall asleep. The carpet is jealous, since it likes you to play on it. Tomorrow morning we will say sorry to the bed and the carpet. Hopefully they will not be angry anymore then!" 

The mother has learned that things get worse if she starts yelling and forbidding, since the child does not accept a 'no' yet. She has discovered that these creative words with humor do the job much better!
