I was speaking once to a crowd      and I noticed out of the crowd that there   was a mother there with her small son.      and this little boy was just acting up.      I mean, he was just making all kinds of noise,  just moving, just fidgeting all around,      really kind of distracting.      Then all of a sudden I notice his mother,   she leans over to him      and she whispered something into his ear.      The little boy's posture   became stiff as a board,      he sat down, and was attentive   through the rest of my speech      the whole while. It was like a miracle!      After I got through speaking,   and people were coming up to shake my hand,      I went over to the mother, and I said,   "Excuse me ma'am,      I just have to ask, I saw your son,   I saw he was a little hyper,      I said, “What did you tell him to make   him sit so attentive      and so quiet the rest of my speech?"      and she says this.     She said I just told him,      “If he kept moving and making noise      and he distracted you     and made you lose your place      you were going to have to   start all over again.”
