Often my 11 year old daughter will use her salad fork into the second or even third course of a meal. How do I instill in her this is outrageous behavior and this kind of etiquette will not be tolerated. Its like she thrives off of this rebellious beahvior

Sounds like it's time for military boarding school... if you ask me. That is the only way she will learn. She needs to be broken down to the lowest level to understand the true power of the salad fork.
The Fork is strong with this one. You must stop her from turning to the Dark Side of the Fork.

Wow you are strict. I don't even know what fork is for what and I have never been put down like you are putting your child down. Maybe you are some kind of royalty or really rich but everyday people don't fret over little things like that. I think it is great that you are trying to teach your daughter etiquette but you need to lighten up a little bit. There are more important things to worry about in life. Hope I haven't offended you but is it really that important that you consider your child to be rebellious?

Not to be nitpicky but what does this have to do with movies. Put the questions in the right category. Big deal about a salad fork. She is rebellious, maybe it is because you nitpick with someone who gets a second or third course. Get over it. Most people are lucky to get one course. Perhaps you need to get her into the real world immediately. Most of us only use one fork at meals. Give me a break. Get off of the MOVIE category. WE DO NOT CARE ABOUT FORKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You must be thinking of Close Encounters where Richard Dreyfus uses his fork to shape his mash potatoes into a likeness of Devils Tower....or possibly Eraser Head when he tries to stab the chick with the fork.

tell her that if she uses the salad fork into the third meal of dinner you will be forced to disown her and she will be adopted by a poorer family that only uses one knife and fork for an entire meal

I had the same problem with my eldest when he was twelve. I had the butler beat him senseless. Within three dinners my son was behaving properly again. Spare the rod, spoil the child. Rod is the best butler I've employed to date.

You, my dear lady, need to get a life-find you a boyfriend, for Pete's sake.
