Our son Yonatan (Jonathan) who is now 1-1/2 taught us over a year
ago the proper way to put him to sleep.  Please share this
information with your kids in case they are unaware of it.

1)  Make sure both parents work so they feel guilty they don't spend
    enough time with you.
2)  Make sure they go on trips, especially to far-away places      
    like Israel and Hong Kong where their family or friends forgot
    to get an extra crib.
3)  Get a chest cold now and then so daddy's got to hold you
    upright in bed (you know whose bed!) the entire night.
4)  Cry like a lost orphan at the very mention of "crib".
    This especially works if both parents are tired and need to
    get up early the next day.

It is guaranteed that within two weeks your child will be peacefully
sleeping all snuggly-poo in their parents' warm and cozy bed FOREVER.
Anyway, it's sure nice to know that children are smarter than you 
thought......
