Electrocution for Cute Children

Electro Smile is Guaranteed to Make Grumpy Kids Grin

Children are no more stubborn than adults, but the invention of Electro Smile is shocking proof that some suggest grownups can at least control them.

Allegedly designed by a Japanese inventor, the Electro Smile was made for those moments at the dinner table and when grandma comes to visit. Administering constant electric shocks from the chin to the cheekbones, the "Pout No More" 30A zapper had better be a hoax.
