"Yes Dorothy, this used to be my tearaway son Michael. Look at the improvement. Here you see Michelle, my beautiful, dutiful daughter. Isn't she a delight? It's only taken two years. You should do what I've done with your boy, Gerry. I'll help, if you want. I've got wardrobes full of pretty, suitable clothes. I could sort out the clothes I used on Michelle when I started. You need really frilly, baby girly clothes first so they look and feel silly and embarrassed. Then you reward her by letting her have something less embarrassing as their behaviour improves. I know they talk about the carrot and the stick but with Michelle I found the carrot was far more effective. I don't think I used the stick more than a couple of times, right at the beginning. Look at her now. Did you ever see such a picture? So demure, so willing to please. Come on, let's make some coffee and talk it through. Yes Michelle dear, you can come with us. You can tell Mrs Perkins how much you enjoy being Michelle in pretty clothes now, can't you?"
