Toddler learning the art of negotiation

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 

My little daughter of three is becoming very smart of late. Instead of her childish “NO!!” to any question that requires her to do something she does not want to, she now returns with another question. For example,

“Tee, it’s time to go brush your teeth.”

“Mommy, is it alright if I have five more minutes, please?” with her sweetest voice.

How can I refuse?

“Tee, it’s time for bed. Lights out. No more noise. No more moving.”

“Mommy, please can I pray to God first?”

*sigh*

“Tee, the house is getting really messy! Please keep your toys? Are you finished with this? If you are, put it back!”

“Mommy, don’t worry. I’ll keep it back when I finish. Just be patient, okay?”

*faint*

  1. I went out to shop for some new blankets for Sophie after work today, and when I came home, she questioned me on where I went. When I told her, she said “But Mamma, you shouldn’t go out just now because it is dark outside!”

    Kids…how do they learn to reason better than us?

  2. Next thing you know it’s going to be “mom, if you get me my own car, you won’t have to drive me around.” Hahahahah.
