Check this out: Russian Mayor Bans Phrase "I Don't Know"
Could that work at home? Just imagine... (insert floaty harp music here)....:
Who left dirty towels on the bathroom floor?
I don't know.
Wrong! You're fired!
Honey, why don't we get away for the weekend?
We don't have the money.
Wrong answer! Go to the back of the line!
Son, would you start that load of laundry?
It's not my job!
Bzzzzzt! Wrong! Suspended without video games for three days!
Hmmmmm.

Sounds like a great idea! I just hit on the best form of punishment for my daughter, ban her from video games. Works like a charm. Now if I could only find Bella's currency!

Devon seemed pretty relaxed and confident at the horse show.I think I was more anxious for him than he was!
ah yeah, that would be nice..i can think of a whole list of phrases that should be banned!
At my home I counter "I don't know" with "I don't know is not an answer. I AM guilty of saying "You know?" A LOT. I do it to confirm that whoever I am talking to understands what I am trying to say. Because in all my trying, sometimes, people just don't "get" me. I figure why go on talking if it becomes clear they are not following. You know?
LOL!
