Did you catch our recap of American Inventor? We live blogged the 2 hour premiere, cataloged and screenshot’ all the inventions – then we invited you to post comments, cheers and jeers in our MAKE forums, check it out and post up! – Link.

Pictured here – Invention #16: The Tizzy Tube, when your kid has a tantrum, you cover them with a tube. If you have more than one kid, they can crash in to each other. It’s a nerf coating for your little ones. The judges calls it a kid prison…kids stop moving too. All no. But one judge says he’d put his kid in it.

    The tizzy tubes are the worst idea ever. Poor woman is emotionally retarded. Good ‘ol spanking works better and a hell of a lot cheaper.

    i knew some kids whose parents believed as that woman inventor does, that kids should be free to express themselves and shouldn’t be censored. know what? those kids became jerks. they grew up rude and violent.

    it seems tizzy tubes would encourage anti-social behaviour, by making violence fun and protecting kids from the consequences of violence. bad idea.
