"If you fall and break both legs, don't come running to me!"

I love that one. I can’t tell you how many times I was sent home from school to get dressed.
I always got: “Stand up straight”! And…“If you’re a good boy today, you’ll no see what I’m gonna give you”. (it took me a while to realize, that I wasn’t going to get anything)
Oh yes, how about this one: “I’ll give you a good reason to cry”!
