So, my friend comes to visit with her younger daughter and her wretched 14 year old.
I walk into the kitchen to find the teenager has taken my genuine scrimshaw razor off the work bench and is casually flicking it open/closed/open/closed

I calmly tell her "If you must play with one of my razors, can you please not play with that one?"
And she promptly drops it on the floor, snapping a chunk off the pivot end of the flawless scales.

and I quote... "whats the big deal, it was already broken, I didnt do it"

Isnt this kind of child prohibited by law? I really wanted to remove her arm, or a leg, and use the bone to carve out a new scale.
Can we PLEASE bring corporal punishment back now?
