3 Star Technique Rating

Description of discipline technique:
To stop two siblings from fighting: Flip a coin and make one kid call it in the air. Do not reveal the results to the kids. Tell them if there is any more fighting, the kid who won the toss will be punished regardless of the circumstances. This works so well it should be patented.

Appropriate age group(s):
Ages 6 to 12, maybe older, maybe younger.
