    Susan was tired of having her three children talk back to her. One day, she climbed into her kids' tree house. It was good place, she thought, for a mother to go on strike(罢工). She was tired of (drive) them everywhere without thanks and doing more than her share of the work around the house. Until (thing) changed, Susan decided to stay up in the tree.

    Susan's strike got her kids' attention, course. But that was not all that happened. Word of the fed-up mother spread. Before long, a camera crew from television's Today Show came into their yard. Now people all across America were going to find who drove the kids' mother up a tree.

    As the cameras worked, the three kids stood with their father near the tree house. Kate, the Today Show host, had a question for (they). "What do you think about your mom on strike in that tree house?" she asked.

    "I am kind of embarrassed, " said Misty.

    "I'm really shocked, "said Joseph. "TI did not think it would go this far. My mom is much (crazy) than we thought."

    Rachel added, "I think mom is so strange I can hardly believe it. "

    But Susan had made her point. If the kids (want) her back, they should know what to do. When the TV crew left, the kids went into their house (quick) and got busy. Not long after that Susan climbed down from the tree and went back to being a mom.
