Soap on a Toothbrush

We were at my son’s soccer game today, and one of the other parents was relating that raising kids today is different than in our day. He said that he was trying to explain to his daughter how our parents would put soap in our mouths when we said something bad. Laughing, I replied that he had it easy. My mom would put the soap on our toothbrush, so it wasn’t a one-time experience, but a residual experience over three or four days! He said that either way it wouldn’t matter, because his daughter would just blow bubbles and still turn it into a game.
