Hold on... have I missed something? Are you and James related, Lulu??

Only by species!

Lulu, clean your room! You're a very lazy girl! No dinner until it's done, you hear?

Thamnophis collecticus, right?

Lulu, clean your room! You're a very lazy girl! No dinner until it's done, you hear?

You've always wanted to say that, haven't you? And there was me thinking you had your own children to boss about.

I have, but I still enjoy bullying other people's children too!

My response to that kind of threat would be to test your ability to enforce it.

Actually, as a kid, I would have cleaned my room, then gone on a hunger strike. But that was back then.

Haha, I just found this in another thread:

Dear me! Don't go accusing me of being an expert! I'll help where I can, but there are others on this forum far better qualified to deserve the title "expert".

I generally prefer to use the threat of a late dinner, to the firm but fair "Do as you're told, or I'll make you live in a darkened closet full of evil zombies, and feed you rancid pizza and stale pitta bread which I will slide under the door, until you're thirty. Then you'll die."

"But Daddy, I'm only three! I don't know how to change the gearbox in the car".
