Japanese Brain Teaser - Cross the River

Got this link in an email forward. Took me a few tries to get to where I could quickly solve it. Why don’t you give it a shot?

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.

Don’t worry about messing the rules. The game will enforce them with funny animations, then gives you a shot to pick different people. But at least once, leave the mother with one of the sons without the father around. :)
