[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sounds manipulative, sneaky and creepy. Unless you have manipulative, sneaky and creepy kids I would never do this. [/quote] Absolutely. I had to work all through college and I would have done much better without all that stress, and without work cutting into my studying time. I have a friend who's a commercial fisherman. He was working on a boat in Alaska where the had to schlep the fish from one area to another, by hand. The seas were so high that they were literally climbing up the boat and sliding down, for 14 hours straight. When they got to port, the skipper said, "I want to show you something.". It was a fish conveyer. They could have moved the fish in a few hours, with little effort. But the skipper wanted to "see if they were tough enough." Every crew member walked off the boat and never went back. That skipper had to go work out of a different port. Do you really want to do that to your kids?[/quote]
