No, No

Unfortunately, Troy learned to say the word “no.” Although, he says it as, “no, no,” which we never say repeated like that, so I’m guessing he learned this at daycare from someone. So far, he’s not using it on us to “back-talk,” but it’s only a matter of time.

This reminds me of one of my friends at work. He said his daughter learned to say, “no means no,” because that’s what he and his wife always said to her when she continued to try to push her limits. One day, he tried to get her to eat something she didn’t like, and his daughter told him no. When he tried to force the issue, she looked him straight in the eye and said, “no means no.” It’s hard to argue with that logic! So now, I’m waiting for Troy to use this against us somehow.
