Apologies for those who read and posted on the original post before it went to blog heaven.

Below is a book I wrote two years ago for my daughter and son. They needed to learn about the different kind of balls in the world and how to use them properly. Talking to them about it didn't seem to work, so I decided to make this book for them.

Balls. Play With. Don't Jump On.

Basketball. Dribble it. Pass it. Shoot it.

I am fortunate that my daughter, the oldest of the two, learned the lesson. Unfortunately, my son did not learn the lesson.  It does not matter what kind of punishment or reward system I try with him he still sucker punches, kicks and jumps on my man area. Every day I am on high alert with him around.
