I did have high hopes for this: Sony RM-KZ1 Universal Children's Remote Control[^]
Even the features looked good:
Kid-tested, mother approved
Worry free parental control
Built for kids
Volume limiting function But then I realised: it was a remote control for children, not a remote control of children. 
Pause. Mute. That's all I ask - though "rewind" would be handy.

In the interests of internet bandwidth reduction, perhaps this should be added as an extension for HTTP.
The returned error code would be in the 4XX range. Older servers could implement similar functionality at the back end by returning either 426 UPGRADE REQUIRED or 428 PRECONDITION REQUIRED.
If no one else will volunteer to write the RFC, I'll try to get it done with a target date of 1-Apr-2016.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

As of 12:30 today, my elder daughter finishes school for the summer. For some 60 days I will be expected to put up with her moody teenaged tantrums. At least when we're in Hungary she'll be slightly better as we'll be beach bound most day.
But it'll be a loonnnnggggggg summer for me.

You drink 60 bottles, and what do you get?
Another day older and deeper in debt.
St. Peter, don't call me 'cause I can't go...
My daughters have driven me to Hell and below.

Yep. Got one of those at uni. A real pain. Comes home for the holidays and makes a mess, steals my garage space. Uses my petrol. Eats all the food. Then she goes back to uni at other end of the country.
But I miss her.
It's a pain, but enjoy it while you can

She's still at school so instead of using my petrol, she just expects me to drive her everywhere.
In other news, expectations may be crushed.

Hang in there.. They grow out of it at about 17 and start to become humans again. In the interim.
GO ON A LONG SUMMER HOLIDAY (without the kids)

We do go on along holiday - 5 weeks this year - and for ten blessed days they'll be staying with Mrs Wife's God Mother!
Yee haa!

Mrs Wife's God Mother? That's a euphemism if ever I saw one. It's Siberian Labour Camp, isn't it?
