Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do.....
"So we have a new distraction technique. You won't find it in any of the books. It's working really well in the house. We're not in the house, we're in public. The behaviour is starting, kid's not happy. I know if I don't bring him out of it now it's going to be really hard for him. People are looking. People are going to look more if I use the new distraction but at least they'll be looking at me instead.
I know what I have to do. I can hear my mothers voice in my head telling me not to. I ignore it.
Deep breath.
'Kid... PULL MY FINGER!'
