2) Snoring

3)Being to hot

4)Not being in the mood for you know what

5)Whether to let the kids sleep in the bed

6)Taking up to much of the bed

7)Being to cold

8)The other persons cold feet touching you

9)when to turn off the lights and go to sleep

10) leaving a light on

Danger: Hand sanitizer getting kids drunk
by Ron Olson , posted Apr 25 2012 8:18AM

Kids are now chugging hand sanitizer to get drunk....Here's what yo need to know.

1) It does get them drunk. an eight ounce bottle with 63 per cent alcohol content is the equivalent of about five shots of hard liquor. And it doesn't take that much to give them alcohol poisoning.

2)Some kids use slat to separate the alcohol from the gel...It's on google.

3) Its popular in prisons too.

4)Buy the foam kind, Not the Gel kind. They are less likely to try chugging foam in the first place.
