I remember once when I was a teenager. I think my brother was 10 or 11 yrs old. I was 16 ot 17. My parents were arguing again and this time got to the point where they were yelling at each other. It was raining outside (a warm rain) and I conspired with my brother to execute an idea I had to interrupt the arguement. My parents were in the dining room directly on the path from our bedrooms to the back (main) door. We kicked off our shoes and then ran with our super soakers while yelling and screaming our heads off. We dashed outside and were screaming and yelling and squirting each other. When Mom and Dad looked out the door to make sure we hadn't completely gone insane we shot them with the soakers. They laughed, Mom stood there in the rain watching while Dad ran to get the water hose. By the time we all got done we were sopping wet but they had cooled off and their arguement was completely forgotten. When they got back inside they apologized to each other for getting upset and found a point of agreement on the subject that had been so problematic.
