Superglue their butts to those chairs



Backstory

This was inspired by MO_Thoughts2 memoir about unruly children running around in a restaurant. I will not tolerate rude behavior from a child, and I often use the phrase to the child who can't sit their rear end down on the chair to 'superglue your butt to the chair'. If I have to resort to that phrase, the kids know they are in trouble

My aunt says this just about on a daily basis! She has 5 boys, and 1 girl ranging from 2 to 16.
When I was little (about 5 or 6) she'd say it to me and I'd ask her where the superglue was :-P

I knew some one who literally belted their children into their chairs well beyond their toddler years...lost track of them so I can't tell you how it turned out.

@Mary I would be happy to start a petition for the group of toddlers you referenced to super glued (or better yet docked for the time they are away like the rest of us!)
