Brain Teaser...

I have been told this is a classic, but I had not seen it before and it actually challenged me, so I thought I would share a brain teaser I received today with all of you. :) Enjoy.

The following rules apply:

• Only 2 persons on the raft at a time
  
• The father can not stay with any of the daughters without their mother's presence
  
• The mother can not stay with any of the sons without their father's presence
  
• The thief (striped shirt) can not stay with any family member if the Policeman is not there
  
• Only the Father, the Mother and the Policeman know how to operate the raft
  

• To start click on the big blue circle on the right.
• To move the people click on them.
• To move the raft click on the pole (red dot) on the opposite side of the river.
