My youngest son is the master of "Why?". Every thing you say to him brings on this question. It is very difficult to redirect him so he doesn't get too focused on having an answer. But he is tenacious. It will serve him well as he grows into adulthood. Right now it only serves to drive me nuts! Really, how does one find a suitable answer to a conversation like this? -
"Get your shoes, it's time to go to the park."
"Why?"
"Hmmm, I wonder...."
I love this quote. It is so appropriate.
"It is not every question that deserves an answer."
Publilius Syrus, Maxims
Have a great day!
I totally agree with this!
