A woman in a supermarket is following a grandfather and his badly behaved 3
year-old grandson.

It's obvious to her that he has his hands full with the child screaming  for
sweets in the sweet aisle, biscuits in the biscuit  aisle; and for fruit,
cereal and pop in the other aisles.

Meanwhile, Gramps is working his way around, saying in a controlled  voice,
"Easy, William, we won't be long  . . . easy, boy."

Another outburst, and she hears the granddad calmly say,  "It's okay,
William, just a couple more minutes and we'll be out of here.  Hang in
there, boy."

At the checkout, the little terror is throwing items out of the cart,  and
Gramps says again in a controlled voice, "William, William, relax  buddy,
don't get upset. We'll be home in five minutes; stay cool, William."

Very impressed, the woman goes outside where the grandfather is loading his
groceries and the boy into the car.

She said to the elderly gentleman, "It's none of my business, but you were
amazing in there. I don't know how you did it. That whole time, you  kept
your composure, and no matter how loud and disruptive he got, you  just
calmly kept saying things would be okay. William is very lucky to  have you
as his grandpa."

"Thanks, lady," said the grandfather, "but I'm William . .. . the little
bastard's name is Kevin."
