    She needs a few lessons from my mom. There’s a very good reason I always did what she said when she said it.

    Oh yeah we did what Mike’s doing. When they give the order the first time you don’t obey, the second time they are a bit angrier but when they scream, then you obey!

    We didn’t have television when I was that age.

    Again, it’s about follow through. You tell the kid to do something and enforce the consequences if he doesn’t do it the FIRST time. You DON’T tell him once, say it again when he doesn’t do it a couple of times then scream at him so he finally gets it done. The change in my own son when I changed methods was amazing, and he was just like Mike.

    Is Veggie Tales that old? If so, I would hate to have the mom turn off that show, her son could have learned from it, as Who else wants kids to mind their parents.

    I never started pushing my parents authority until I reached my teens.

    Mike likes his Veggie Tales.

    “VeggieTales” made its debut in 1993. This strip is either a new one in the old style or a redrawn classic from about 30 years ago.

    Nope, this is one of the original strips from 1980. Perhaps it was this strip that inspired the creator of VeggieTales to go on and create that program. Looks more like “Quisp” and a raddish to me, though.

    This strip is from the collection “I’ve Got the One-More-Washload Blues” (p.113) copyright 1981 - DEFINITELY predates “Veggie Tales” - and those veggies are on the original strip!

    Definitely not Veggie Tales. The turnip has a neck. None of the veggies in Veggie Tales has appendages. Not even hands.
