I went shopping today and i was behind a grandfather and his badly behaved grandson. He had his hands full with the child screaming for sweets, biscuits. all sorts of things.
The grandad is saying in a controlled voice: "Easy, William, we won't be long... easy boy."
Another outburst and i heard the grandad calmly say: "It's ok William. Just a couple more minutes and we'll be out of here. Hang in there, boy."
At the checkout the little horror is throwing items out the trolley. Grandad says again in a controlled voice: "William, William, relax boy, don't get upset, we'll be home in five minutes."
Well, i was really impressed, so i went outside to where the grandfather is loading the groceries and the boy into the car. I said to the grandad "It's none of my business but you were amazing in there. The whole time you kept your composure and calmly kept saying things would be ok. William is very lucky to have you as his grandad."
"Thanks," said the grandad, "But i am William. The little bastards name is Kevin."[/b][/b]
