The children sensed my fear and all began to fuss. Acting quickly, before I was drowned out by a wave of caterwauling infants, I spoke loudly. <em>Using a demented baby voice<\/em> that never fails to get attention I said, <em>&#8220;Be cool my babies.&#8221;<\/em> And in the ensuing pause I <em>tried to explain lizards<\/em> to them. I don&#8217;t know why. It was just the first thing that popped into my head. When using the demented baby voice, tone matters much more than content. It might not be the best parenting technique in the world, and if you disagree with my methods <em>please tell me why and how I&#8217;m wrong<\/em>.
