Natural Consequences

"You never can tell with bees." - A.A. Milne (Winnie the Pooh)

"After you get stung, you can't get unstung
no matter how much you whine about it.” ― Sue Monk Kidd (The Secret Life of Bees)




I kept telling him not to touch bees. 
He said, "You're full of boloney", and stormed off.
I said, "Okay, I'll go inside and wait for the scream".




The facts:
- Only female bumblebees have stingers.

 - Bumblebee stingers are not barbed like the honeybee so it can sting more than once.

- Bumblebees only sting if they feel threatened.

* Kids with ADHD and some manifestations of SPD have difficulty controlling their impulses.   They learn best by natural consequences (as long as it's not dangerous) 

The fix:
- a drop of therapeutic grade lavender oil.
or
- mix baking soda with vinegar into a paste and apply
- plantain spit poultice
- Stingeez
- Caladryl
