IN THE CAR:
Nancy: Mom! Jimmy is touching me!
Mother: Enough! I'm sick of asking you to stop! Can't you children behave ?
Jimmy: I didn't do anything. She's bothering me!
Mother: it's the same thing! "He's touching me!" "She's bothering me!" Are you going to stop this arguing, or do I stop the car?
Nancy: He started it, mom.
Jimmy: I did not!
Mother: I want you to stop this nonsense, !
Jimmy: Nancy better stop it before she makes me really mad.
Nancy: You can't make me.
Mother: That's it! The two of you better a quiet night at home. You're both grounded! No television! No toys! No friends! Nothing. And no more talking or I will your punishment.
