Answer 1

ROFL!!  Well, our story is a very old one, but it is similar to that.  Our oldest son is 31 years old, but when he was little, he was very difficult to handle in the stores.  My husband was taking a class in Psychology and they were talking about discipline, ways of gaining control of a child in public, etc.  The teacher suggested gently squeezing the muscle at the top of the shoulder, as it would get their attention without hurting them.  So, when Daddy tried that in the store, our son (who was 3 or 4 years old) went into the full act of pain, lying on the floor hollering, "Owww!!!  You hurt me!!!"  Yeah, really embarrassing.  We didn't know until then, that our son was an actor.  He continued to hone his acting skills and starred in several community theatre roles as he grew up.
