Why?

By Sarah Fader

“Ari, don’t put clay on your chalkboard.”
“Why?”
“Because it doesn’t belong there.”
“Why?”
“Because you play with clay at the table, not on the chalkboard.”
“Why?”
“Please stop asking ‘why?’ I don’t have another answer.”
“Why?”
“Grrrr!”

Anyone else experiencing this?

    I always answer: “Why do YOU think such and such does such and such?”

    Turn the tables! 😉
