The River IQ Test

This River IQ test almost did my head in... I spent *insert excessive amount time* trying to work the damn thing out! I did! Apparently this is an IQ test used in China at job interviews (urban myth IMHO)
Have a go, let me know you well you go! Here's the rules:


1. To start click on the big blue circle on the right.
2. To move the people click on them.
3. To move the raft click on the pole on the opposite side of the river.
4. Only 2 persons on the raft at a time
5. The father can not stay with any of the daughters without their mother's presence
6. The mother can not stay with any of the sons without their father's presence
7. The thief (striped shirt) can not stay with any family member if the Policeman is not there
8. Only the Father, the Mother and the Policeman know how to operate the raft

How funny is the bashing? Good luck!

the last move is to leave the thief alone on one side and bring him over last!

That IQ test is pretty dang hard. As the minutes ticked-by I was beginning to doubt my intelligence, "Am I too old to be smart? Have my glory days of smartness all faded away, leaving me nothing but equally faded memories of brainbusters quickly busted?"

But then I solved it and now I think I am pretty badass again. Thanks for the feelings of badassness!
