Daily Joke: Boy Gets His Driving Permit and Asks His Minister Father to Discuss the Use of the Car
There are times when kids have certain demands and you realize that it's an opportunity for you as a parent to have your demands met too in what's called "negotiation." The joke below shows one parent's professional level negotiation skills at work!
He asked his father, who was a minister if they could discuss his use of the family car. His father considered this inevitability and decided to negotiate:
"I'll make a deal with you. You bring your grades up; study your Bible a little, and get your hair cut, then we will talk about it."
A month later, the boy came back and again asked his father if they could discuss his use of the family car.

His father said, "Son, I'm really proud of you. You have brought your grades up; you've studied your Bible diligently, but you didn't get hair cut!"
The young man waited a moment and replied,
"You know Dad, I've been thinking about that. The Bible says Samson had long hair. Moses had long hair. Noah had long hair, and even Jesus had long hair."

His father replied, without skipping a beat,
"Yes, son, and they walked everywhere they went!"
