My middle son was very out of control when he came home. I was trained and certified to do restraint. <br /> <br /> One restraint lasted three hours. All he had to do was be still and be quiet, it took three hours to get there. Finally it was over and he said,"Let me up." I told him I couldn't move, to squirm out, he did. He asked "What now?" I told him to push me over sideways and help straighten my legs. With much help from him, I was finally up and going again. Getting stuck was a funciton of antiyounglness (I was 53) and taking on trees with my knees while skiiing. I had no idea you could get stuck!<br /> <br /> Two thoughts, don't ski into trees, and stay off the floor. Since I only do boys, we will stay away from the Barbie thing. John<br /> <br /> PS They were small trees. Roger, the floor thing. My middle son was very out of control when he came home. I was trained and certified to do restraint.
