Ah, reminds me of the gool 'ol days when Mom's favorite punishment when us kids were bad was to confiscate anything that could bring enjoyment.. Taught me very quickly that the best way to difuse a potential situation was to make Mom laugh. My sister didn't learn that lesson and after one particularly nasty argument lost everything from her room that wasn't absolutely necessary, I actually think she would have lost her bed if Mom had thought she could pick it up

.. Anyway, I'm glad to see there are still some parents out there who will stand up to their kids.
