Japanese invention that forces children to smile

Ever had trouble dealing with stubbord kids who pout and throw tantrums when in public? Its something most parents have to deal with, and it could prove to be both humiliating and tiresome. There might be a solution for that. Kinda. This half-ingenious, half-crazy gadget invented by a Japanese scientist will make sure your kids smile when you want them to.

Its called the Electro Smile and it works by putting on the contraption shown in the image above, which constantly sends electric shocks to a childs cheeks, triggering the muscles in their face to force an insincere smilecomplete with a jolt that excites the entire body. The shocks are actually strong enough to keep the smiles on their faces even without the device, with a minorside-effectof twitching from time to time. Moreover, the settings are adjustable to give a more powerful shock that is sure to make even the most stubborn of kids to put on a smile.

The description sounds more like a torture and its creepy to say the least. The things Japanese think about are simply out of this world, I tell you. Now that I think about it, maybe its more like 5-percent ingenious, 95-percent crazy.News Weird, Image Credit
