So TMOS again - what would you have done. All your previous suggestions were tried without success.
In the End jason succeeded in what he wanted - an admission from the squealers they would indeed clear up.

The fact that the question Jason asked was about clearing up, is wholly irrelevant. He could have asked when Marco was going to cook a meal next - Marco's response would have been equally obtuse and provocative.

Im not saying abuse them, lock them under the stairs tied up. etc, Im on about giving some1 a clout because they need to be knocked into line, obviously there are boundarys but giving your children a slap round the back of the head never did any1 any harm, I know it never did me any harm, I know the difference between right and wrong, and I wouldnt hesitate to threaten my children they'd have a crack if they stepped outta line (and by a crack I dont mean smack them til there unconsious as your bound to say my children are going to grow up mentally unstable because they have been abused

I'm not a hard guy but I can answer a question when asked.
You've already had much more time to think about your approach than Jason and you can't come up with an answer with how to control your own kids
They're just dancing and screaming at you. What are you going to do about it?

not at all. why can't you answer though?
your kids have made a right tip of your house, as bad as that one last night
what are you going to do about it?
Jason had to come up with an apporach in a second. You've had quarter of an hour already and are still dodging the issue

I think there has to some kind of physical reaction from Jason to stop Marco. Not by hitting him though.
Marco was invading Jasons personal space, and refusing to back down after numerous requests. So he has to be taught a lesson. If Jason wasn't so pissed off (or indeed still wanted to play the game) then rather than respond with anger, he could have responded with a high spirits play fight scenario - tell marco he's 'gonna get it', chase the queen round the garden a couple of times, catch him and flush his head down the toilet. Something like that. humiliate the ****. All in percieved jest of course
Just an idea

TheManOnTheStreet .. what street are you on?
This is Planet Earth .. it helps to have a grip on reality not what you'd read in pyschiatry books, you respond with well versed reasonable responses.
Unfortunately most people do not adhere to all the 'correct' and reasoned responses and if this had been in the local boozer Marco would have been poo-ing out his teeth in the morning
No point preaching the 'right on' way with respect to BB, I don't advocate violence, but if Marco had done that dance in front of most males on the planet he'd have been nursing his face for a long time.
No it's not politically correct or clever but you can't just eradicate millions of years human behaviour. It's instinct pure and simple.
Doofus.

So actually assulting the guy is better then threatening to assult him if you pretend it is a joke?

then you maybe send them to their room, where they have a chance to think about their behaviour in a reasonable fashion - erm - don't think that is gonna work in this situation.
