These Kids Were Being Huge Brats During Dinner. But No One Expected THIS Punishment!
Sitting down for a meal should be a social and interactive event for everyone gathered around the table. Dinners are a time to catch up in our busy lives with family and friends and good old fashioned conversation seems to flow better over food and drinks.
For years people have taken time in their lives to stop whatever it was they were doing so they could sit down to enjoy meals with others. However, in recent times the dinner table dynamic has taken a drastic turn for the worse.
People now bring their phones, tablets and other gadgets to dinner, whip them out, and bury their heads in the devices. They pay no attention to others and focus on the little glowing screen, oblivious to the world around them. Others can’t tear themselves away from the TV and blast the distracting box way too loud so they can hear it through their chewing.
No one else present can get a word in and it’s becoming all too common for people to eat mindlessly in front of TVs. Texting is basically a person typing private messages to another and when it’s done at the table it’s rude and shows nothing but a lack of respect for fellow dining companions. It’s that simple yet people still do it, like they’re addicts.
That is the sad reality shown clearly in this video from Dolmio, a company that makes Italian sauces and now a new clever invention aptly named the “Pepper Hacker.” The pepper hacker looks like an ordinary wooden pepper grinder but it contains a powerful hidden secret within.
With just one simple twist it activates a technology type signal blocker and shuts down TVs, WiFi, and mobile devices in an instant. To show its effectiveness, the company gave them to frustrated mothers and recorded the families reactions. Kids went nuts, cursing their devices and throwing fits, and frantically tried to figure out what was wrong with their phones, tablets, and TVs.
However, it was also time for dinner so they put aside their confusion and sat down for a nice homemade family meal. The scenes without gadgets at the dinner table tell the real story. Children talked, interacted, and engaged fully with one another and their parents instead of staring at their phones like checked out zombies. People all smiled, joked, and enjoyed themselves for once, which is how dinner should always be.
As awesome and neat as the Pepper Hacker device is, it’s also sadly unavailable for purchase right now. According to it’s creator, Brendan Forster, the gadget is still in development and prototype stages and has yet to be produced on a large scale.
Either way, you can always make it a house rule that cellphones, iPads, and similar devices are banned from the dinner table, or just turn off the WiFi and lay down the law!

I Was Confused When Mom Put A Container Of Toys Into The Freezer. But The Reason Is Surprisingly Brilliant!
When kids are home in the summertime you need to keep them busy and engaged in fun activities. Children often lose interest in their toys and the same old games they play day in and day out. When boredom sets in no one has fun. If you find that you’re running out of ideas to keep them entertained, check out these ice toys.
They’re a novel way to keep kids busy for a long time when it’s really hot outside and you can make them at home with a few simple items that you likely already have on hand. Your kids will play with them for hours and will love having a new activity to do!
First up is ice toys which are made by using a plastic tub or bin, small toys that can get wet, and colored liquids. Place the toys in the bin, pour some liquid over them, and freeze it until completely frozen. Take it out and pour another color over the first layer.
Make sure the liquid you pour on top of the first frozen layer is very cold because if it’s too warm it will crack the layer underneath it. Freeze that layer completely and repeat the process, adding as many different layers of colored liquid as you’d like.
It takes awhile for all the layers to completely freeze so be sure to start this well in advance of when you want to use it. When it’s time to play, give the kids some tools to work with and help them figure out how to get the toys out of the ice. It should hold their attention for a long time and if it doesn’t simply pop the ice back in the freezer and come back to it at another time.
Next is ice paints that you can make with paint, an ice cube tray, water, and toothpicks. Fill an ice cube container a third of the way with paint, then top them off with water. Stir the paint and water, freeze for about two hours, then stick a toothpick in each paint cube and allow it to completely freeze. Take them out and have the kids paint with the ice cubes on paper as they melt.
The third project is ice boats. You will need small plastic containers, supplies to make sails with (such as paper, fabric, toothpicks, umbrella toothpicks, or small bamboo forks), and finally aluminum foil to make a river. Freeze water in the plastic containers and halfway through freezing them stick a toothpick, or whatever you choose to use for the mast, in the middle of them.
After they completely freeze take them out and glue or tape on some fabric or paper sails. Take some tin foil and form a ‘river’ out of it where the ice boats can float down. Then grab a hose so there is a constant flow of water and have the kids sail their boats down the river. They can race their boats and will play with these fun toys until they melt!

This Cowboy Dad Catches His Daughter Dancing To Hip Hop. Now Watch His Reaction!
There are few forces in the universe as powerful as the love of a father for his daughter. For each of them, it is a relationship and special part of life that cannot be replicated. From the moment he first meets her, a father is wrapped around her tiny little finger, and there is nothing that he wouldn’t do for her.
A girl learns love, trust and confidence from her father, which helps guide her on her path as she becomes a woman. A man learns how to provide for, protect, love and let go of his little girl, teaching him valuable life lessons that make him a better man.
When the video begins, it just seems like any other girl filming herself dancing to hip hop, but everything changes when her cowboy father sees her and steps up to the plate. His first few steps are not quite on, as he tries his best to synchronize with her.
Pretty soon, he is dancing so well it seems like they have been practicing together for weeks. He flawlessly whips and naenae’s at just the right time, with impeccable style and a heart full of love. Every father-daughter relationship is like a dance.
As each person moves, the other does their best to move in a way that is complimentary, but it isn’t always easy, and sometimes it doesn’t look pretty. But in the end, both people learn things about themselves and the other person that inform their growth together and as individuals. Tell us about your reaction to this video in the comments.

This Father Has Triplets But When They Get Into The Minivan I Lost It!
More and more fathers have been taking on an increased role in their child’s lives. These days, dads are hands on and the childcare is no longer left for just mom to do. Whether it’s changing diapers, grocery shopping, hauling the kids to school and practice, or playing around at home and watching TV, dads are spending time doing things with their kids.
In homage to devoted fathers everywhere, a man decided to gather his young triplets and two older boys, to create a silly, fun, and entertaining parody video of the song “Sexy and I know it.” The lyrics and title have been appropriately changed in the new version to “I’m a Daddy and I Know it,” which was uploaded to the YouTube channel DaddyCrazy5.
The song and music video turned out awesome, with the subject matter and lyrics fitting unbelievably well with the original one’s. The dad in the video clearly loves and adores his children and from the looks of it, he does quite a lot around the house.
With 5 kids, three of them being triplets, he better be helping out mom! He takes us through a typical day in his life with his family. We see him changing diapers, playing house, doing laundry, picking up toys, feeding the kids, reading them books, and taking them on a shopping excursion. All the while he stays active, dancing and shaking his booty, even lifting his kids as a way to get in a work out.
The video shows how much fun and love families often have for each other, even when doing the mundane daily tasks that we all dread. Best of all, the kids look like they are having the time of their life doing this project with their father.
Their little faces are filled with smiles and delight as they dance and play with dad and watch him act all silly. They are going to have some great memories when they look back and watch this video in the future. Maybe they will even make a sequel or remix as they grow older!
Check out the video and remember to pass it on to your family, friends, and especially any dads you may know. They can reminisce about their fatherhood experiences, or relate to it in what they are going through now, either way they will love it!

This Year You Need To Keep Your Children Away From This Bug. All Parents Should Watch THIS
The furry looking caterpillar you see in this video, that looks like a walking mini-toupee, is highly toxic. The unassuming insect is known as a puss caterpillar and over time it changes dramatically as it transforms into an adult. After it finishes developing it turns into a furry winged insect known as a southern flannel moth, and sometimes it’s called a puss moth.
The bugs only pose a threat when they are in their caterpillar form and contact with them should be avoided at all costs. However, it’s their soft and fuzzy appearance that’s highly deceiving and the hair-like spikes draw kids to them and encourages children to reach out and pick them up.
The caterpillars can also come into contact with skin when they fall out of trees or land on people from above. They favor citrus, sycamore, oak, and elm trees, as well as plants like roses and ivy. The puss caterpillars are found in southern parts of the United States and throughout Mexico and Central America. Recently they have been in the news because of increased reports of them injuring kids and causing painful reactions.
What makes them so fearsome and nasty is their fuzzy exteriors. The furs are actually venomous spines which cause excruciating pain when they come into contact with people’s skin. Reactions to the stings can be severe, with radiating pain, burning, nausea, vomiting, swelling, rashes, blisters, and numbness in the affected area.
Sometimes people develop chest pains or have difficulty breathing, and hives or welts may turn up on the sting site. The sting feels worse than any comparable type, beating bees, scorpions, jellyfish, and wasps. Some people have even started to convulse and reported that their pain went deep, causing even their bones hurt.
To lessen your chances of running into one of these bugs and to avoid any pain, stay vigilant and be mindful of the tiny creatures. Make sure that young children know the dangers of them and if you or someone you know does get stung, seek immediate medical attention.
You can also lessen pain by covering the area with tape and then ripping it off. That helps to remove any embedded spines and decreases the pain. Be sure to have fun this summer and be safe!

This Guy Secretly Films His Mom and Posts It On The Internet. Watching This Video Tore My Heart Up.
“We all want to love and be loved,” that is what life is all about, according to Alex Norgay. That is also why over the course of the past year he secretly made this video for his mother, Eva, in hopes of helping her find a boyfriend. She has been on a few dates over the past couple years but nothing quite panned out and she is still looking for the right man. Alex explains that she deserves love and his aim is to help her find it. He recorded the moment he showed her his video, which she knew nothing about prior to that time.
It begins with a general overview about her, that she was born in the Czech Republic in 1946 and now lives in Norway, and is a Cancer, which makes her around 68 years young. With this information in mind it then delves into what she likes. The list includes a variety of activities and interests including tennis, swimming, nature, skiing, cross country skiing, yoga, relaxing in the sun, art, beer, bike riding, traveling, fooling around, dancing, hanging out with her best friend Eva, and taking care of her sister, mother, family, and son.
The clips of her doing all these activities is where the viewer really gets a sense of what Eva is all about. She seems very graceful, active, physically fit, and natural. Her personality shines through, especially when she is shown hula hooping, dancing, and laughing with her friends and family. Her sense of humor is also very apparent in the shot of her riding her bike. When she took a spill off it she jumped right back up on her feet and laughed it off. She clearly loves life and doesn’t take anything too seriously.
When Alex’s film ends we get to see Eva’s reaction to it. She asks him what he wants to do with it and he tells her he wants to spread the word and upload it to YouTube. She seems happy and kinda shocked, asking incredulously and endearingly “on internet?” So if anyone out there watching has someone in mind who would make a great match for Eva, get in touch. Send a nice letter with a video or picture to [email protected], and if it catches her eye, someone will be in touch!
