I love when parents call the police because their children do not listen. My mother didn't need the police to get us kids to fall in line, she has this glare that could shattered the stoniest of hearts. My mother would have drove away and made me walk home for my insolence.
My mom DID do that once
My sister and I were fighting in the back of the car, she stopped told us both to get out and walk home. We were 2 miles or so from the house.
We got out and walked home, we weren't fighting when we got there either.
I bet. Walking two miles tends to clam the fieriness in anyone. My parents practiced a stern but gentle hand with my sister and I growing up. So long as I brought home good grades and finished my chores in timely fashion I was allowed to pretty much do as I pleased.
My parents were fairly strict with us up until the time we proved we didnt' need such a strict hand.
So, until we were 30 or so LOL
I spent many years of my childhood on the family farm and my parents worked shifts in the mills for extra income. They couldn't keep too much of watchful eye on us but the rest of the family on the farm sure as hell did. lol
