A friend of mine as recently told me about Naughty Juice. When Ethan decides to not listen or say something naughty he would normally get hot sauce on his tongue. Well he has had so much of it over the past few years that hot sauce does not bother him anymore.
Naughty Juice is white vinegar. I've only had to tell Ethan that when he is bad he'll get it. That alone has been enough for him to behave.
We were visiting a friend Friday night and Ethan was playing with his little friend A. The phase they are going through right now is calling each other loser. We continue to tell them not to call each other names and to play nice. After having this conversation with the both of them...they were walking back outside and I heard Ethan say "you better stop it or I'll show you my middle finger". If you need to take a break and get up off the floor I understand.
I immediately said to my friend "where is the naughty juice"....I could see the fear in Ethan eyes when I told him to come here. I proceeded to put just a little on a spoon and told Ethan to not spit it out. Ethan held his nose and took it like a man until he tasted it and decided to act like he was going to hurl. He now understands Naughty Juice.
So I did have to find out where in the world he found out about the middle finger. He finally told me that he learned it from one of his friends at school. I will be talking to his mother this week.
