I had some real problem children, but not many would cross me - they seemed to all be scared of me, and to realize that I wouldn't bite their heads off without provocation, so they never provoked me. And I took care of my kids, which gave them even more incentive not to piss me off.
Looks like we have something else in common. When I was in the military, they used to give me all the misfits and problem children.
They all turned out to be the smartest and the best. To the point that they were always stealing my team from me.
This worked up until the time that I got to my last crew. They were all smart enough to stop being exceptional and got themselves sent back to me.
