<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK1;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;">I just want to let you know that I am finding this class very helpful.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK1;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;">One time I left the window open and the kids were yelling "I don’t want to do it, leave me alone" and my neighbors called the police! I had patrol car pull up outside my house with lights flashing and had 2 armed police officers come to the door and ask to see what was going on. I brought them in and showed them the vest and all the medical paraphernalia and explained that the kids did not want to do it. My wife and I were totally mortified. Fortunately, we don't live in that neighborhood anymore.
