To get me to stay in front of the house, she use to tell me "the big black truck will get you if you move away from the house" It was a funny sight when the UPS guy would come down the street!.
Its funny how when parents would tell us SOMEONE ELSE will get angry, it usually makes us stop what we are doing!. Now if they said that they would get angry- we would keep on doing it!.
"If you are bad, the ice cream man wont stop here for you"
also when I was bad, my parents use to tell me that they were going to put me back where they found me!.!.!. apparently it was a wendy's bag on the side of the road!. LOLOL ;)Www@Enter-QA@Com

If it was around the holidays such as christmas, but my parents would pull the ol' "if you misbehave, then santa isn't going to bring you any presents this year!" or "the easter bunny doesn't give candy to bad kids"!.
And of course as a little kid, that scared me half to death to not get presents on christmas so it worked :-pWww@Enter-QA@Com

They never threatened me or my siblings!.
If I was out of line, they asked me if that was really the way I wanted to behave, and more often than not, I had enough common sense to stop!. If I didn't know any better, they explained to me what would be the consequences!. Such as if I didn't eat my salmon, they said that I would be deprived of the Omega-3 fatty acids and that later in life, I wouldn't have a strong heart!. We were unusually smart as kids, and most of the time, my parents scolded us for staying up too late, reading!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

The only instance that comes to mind, was when they cooked up some vile tasting Orange Roughey fish (Which I couldn't stand then, but I love now!.)
"That fish swam miles and miles across the sea, just to sit on your plate, and you're not going to eat it!?"
So I choked it down while I literally wretched!. My parents thought my wretching was faked, but my throat would try to push it back up my esophagus while I tried my darnedest to swallow the putrid tasting meat!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

My mom or grandma would pull out the wooden spoon and that was enough to make us behave!
At night when me and my sister wouldn't sleep but laugh all night, my uncle use to tell us that if the boogeyman hear us laughing at night than the boogeyman would open our window and take us away! My grandma would just say, "That's true! The boogeyman will take you!."!. ^_^ Aha!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

I remember LOL the face getting stuck, I rolled my eyes back a lot and my dad told me they were going to get stuck like that, I was really worried about it!.
I even believed that swallowing a watermelon seed could result in a watermelon growing in my tummy!.
They told my brother and I that if we were naughty we'd get coal for christmas and I believed them because they "of course" verified it with a story of a little boy who actually did!.

Wait until your father gets home!.
They didn't say much else because they acted, such as sent me to my room or grounded me rather than warning!.
My mother had a large board that was hanging on the wall called the board of education and it was known as the devise that would be used if we didn't behave!. (It never left the wall because just seeing it made us think twice!.)Www@Enter-QA@Com
