If you are a parent, use your child's library card when checking books out of the library. Not only can you check out any book (adult or children's), but there is no fee if you return them late.

Tell your kid that if he or she doesn't brush their teeth well enough, they'll all fall out. When they start to lose their baby teeth, tell them they didn't do a good enough job. This way, they'll brush their adult teeth really well.

As a parent of a baby, smell their diaper. If you DON’T smell poop, say, “Woah, somebody has a poopy diaper. “ Then take them to the other room and pretend to change them. Then the next time they poop tell your spouse, “It’s your turn. I changed them last time.”

Tell your kids that every time they lie or break a promise, they permanently lose a strand of hair on their head, and that if they lie too much, they will go bald at a very young age. Works like a charm!
Note: Avoid if you are bald, and also make them promise to keep it a secret at least till they turn 15 or something. Believe me, you don't want them going to a relative and be like "I see that you lie a lot" "No I don't, who told you that?" "LIAR LIAR!!! My mum told me!"

You can also add that they earn a strand everytime they help you, do a good deed or something...

Kid doesn't want to eat something? Send them to a friends house to hangout, and give/tell the parents to cook the food your kid doesn't like! He will be forced to eat it, or be super embarrassing to a friend's family.
