Sassy sauce changed my life!

I enlisted the help of some moms from Facebook on what to do about J.'s incessant cussing. Several suggested Tabasco sauce, and one friend referred to it as "Sassy Sauce" -- that night, I tried it as soon as J. dropped the first s-bomb. It worked.

Mind you, I've never even given it to him. He's just seen the bottle and smelled the sauce - that's enough for him. He's gone from swearing like a sailor to having one slip-up a day, which ends when threatened with Sassy sauce.

What's great it has many uses! When he talks back, doesn't listen, or does something that he knows he's not supposed to do, one mention of Sassy sauce and he gets right back in line. I let him know, he can choose to behave or he can choose to get Sassy sauce, it's up to him. Works every time.

This stuff has literally changed my life!
